Description of problem: I went to custom partitioning, there was a previously installed encrypted F20 installation. I unlocked it. Then I re-used old swap and /boot partition in the new layout. I deleted old /home partition and reused old / partition. The / partition was marked as reformat and also enlarge from 50 to 60 GB (I had free space because I deleted /home). Anaconda crashed during the first stage of installation.

Correction: The / partition was marked as reformat, *encrypted* and also enlarge from 50 to 60 GB (I had free space because I deleted /home).
I guess this violates our Beta criteria: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_20_Beta_Release_Criteria#Custom_partitioning
that...seems like a pretty complex reproducer. can you nail down more precisely the problematic bit?
Reproduced 1027682 cmdline: /usr/bin/python /sbin/anaconda cmdline_file: initrd=initrd.img inst.stage2=hd:LABEL=Fedora\x2020-Beta\x20x86_64 quiet BOOT_IMAGE=vmlinuz hashmarkername: anaconda kernel: 3.11.6-301.fc20.x86_64 package: anaconda-20.25.6-1 product: Fedora reason: DeviceError: ('Cannot destroy non-leaf device', 'fedora-root') release: Cannot get release name. version: 20-Beta
A simpler reproducer: 1. Install a default Fedora LVM install - /boot as standard partition, swap and / as LVM. 2. Reboot into installer again. 3. Go into custom part and reuse /boot and swap. 4. Click on /, click Reformat, click Encrypt and also resize it (I used 6 GB instead of original 8 GB). Click Apply. 5. See that the size was _not_ updated (that's probably related to bug 1027714). 6. Continue with install. See crash during installation start. I believe the root cause of this bug is exactly the same as in bug 1026466 comment 9. It's caused by the resize attempt. The size is not updated in Anaconda GUI, but it tries to perform the operation (probably with some invalid arguments) and it fails.
Discussed in the 2013-11-07 Go/No-Go meeting [1]. Voted as a RejectedBlocker as resize issues are generally considered for blocking final release, not beta. As such, this bug is rejected as a release blocking issue for F20 beta but please re-propose as a Final Blocker and mark for inclusion in CommonBugs.

Discussed at 2013-11-13 blocker review meeting - http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2013-11-13/f20-final-blocker-review-1.2013-11-13-17.01.log.txt . Accepted as a blocker per criterion "Reject or disallow invalid disk and volume configurations without crashing." (custom partitioning)
or possibly "Any installer mechanism for resizing storage volumes must correctly attempt the requested operation."
