+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1012504 +++ Description of problem: Many attempts to get the layout I wanted in Manual partitioning, followed by Reset All, followed by another attempt. Installation had begun, and then installer crashed while creating ext4 on /dev/sda6. Version-Release number of selected component: anaconda-20.18-1.fc20.x86_64 The following was filed automatically by anaconda: anaconda 20.18-1 exception report Traceback (most recent call first): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/blivet/formats/fs.py", line 779, in create raise FSError("filesystem already exists") File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/blivet/deviceaction.py", line 471, in execute options=self.device.formatArgs) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/blivet/devicetree.py", line 237, in processActions action.execute() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/blivet/__init__.py", line 310, in doIt self.devicetree.processActions() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/blivet/__init__.py", line 169, in turnOnFilesystems storage.doIt() File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/install.py", line 142, in doInstall turnOnFilesystems(storage, mountOnly=flags.flags.dirInstall) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/threading.py", line 764, in run self.__target(*self.__args, **self.__kwargs) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/threads.py", line 168, in run threading.Thread.run(self, *args, **kwargs) FSError: filesystem already exists Additional info: cmdline: /usr/bin/python /sbin/anaconda --liveinst --method=livecd:///dev/mapper/live-osimg-min --lang en_US.UTF-8 cmdline_file: BOOT_IMAGE=/isolinux/vmlinuz0 root=live:LABEL=Fedora-Live-Desktop-x86_64-20-Al ro rd.live.image quiet rhgb executable: /sbin/anaconda hashmarkername: anaconda kernel: 3.11.0-300.fc20.x86_64 other involved packages: python-libs-2.7.5-7.fc20.x86_64, python-blivet-0.20-1.fc20.noarch product: Fedora release: Fedora release 20 (Heisenbug) type: anaconda version: 20 --- Additional comment from Reartes Guillermo on 2013-10-20 19:26:24 EDT --- Here are the most simple steps to reproduce it. 0. Boot Fedora 20b TC5 (no kernel parameter, either on a new guest or on an unpartitioned disk) 1. Reach the Welcome Hub (either use the default -English- or select your language -mine is Spanish-) 2. Leave defaults for Date & Time, Language Support, Keyboard, Installation Source, Software Selection, Network Configuration. 3. Enter Installation Destination Spoke. 4. The single disk is already selected. Press 'done' 5. On Installation Options Dialog, choose to do custom/manual partitioning ("I want to review...") and select 'btrfs' for the Partition Scheme, then 'Continue'. 6. Click '+' add '/boot' of '512' 7. Click '+' add 'swap' of '512' 9. Click '+' add '/' of <null>, anaconda will select the maximum size (as intended). 10. Press 'done' to return to the Main Hub. 11. Press 'Accept Changes' in 'Summary Of Changes' dialog. There it can be seen (among other entries): * Create Format btrfs vda3 * Create Device btrfs volume fedora * Create Format btrfs fedora * Create Device btrfs subvolume root <<< HERE * Create Format ext4 root <<< HERE 12. In the Main Hub, Start Installing, an 'unknown error' will popup.
