RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

+++ 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.

The following was filed automatically by anaconda:

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.
