Comment 13 Adam Williamson 2013-12-02 16:41:36 UTC 
F20 TC3, custom partitioning with previous F20 install, deleted all existing volumes, added a 500MB /boot, set it as btrfs, added a / and did not enter anything in the size field, crash.

Proposing as a Final blocker: "The installer must be able to create and install to any workable partition layout using any file system and/or container format combination offered in a default installer configuration. " ( crash on a perfectly normal operation in custom partitioning)
