Comment 12 Kerry 2013-12-23 05:19:33 UTC 
The error message mentioned "/dev/md" so I disabled the four hard drives which make up the two raid arrays in bios, then tried again.
The same problem occurs even with these drives not present.
Comment 13 Adam Williamson 2013-12-29 23:00:52 UTC 
Does /etc/fstab of an existing Linux install have an entry for '/dev/md0' or something like that? It is known that anaconda crashes if you have an fstab entry that identifies an mdraid array by its device node rather than by something more reliable, like a UUID. That's https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=980267 . This is quite likely to be a duplicate.
Comment 14 Kerry 2013-12-30 00:01:41 UTC 
Yes, I do have /dev/md0 and /dev/md1 in the fstab file.
I will change this and try again later.
Thanks.
Comment 15 Adam Williamson 2013-12-30 00:07:17 UTC 
OK, for now let's call it a dupe of that bug, it seems very likely.
