Tao, have you actually tried to _delete_ the old partitions? Because the error message says "Failed to add new device". Have you tried to expand the "Unknown" section first and remove the existing partitions?

Also, please _ALWAYS_ attach log files from /tmp.

In case of Rawhide images, please also include the date of compose for that Rawhide image (and specify whether it's netinst or Live), it would greatly help others to reproduce. Thanks.

Comment 2 Tao Wu 2014-04-28 09:28:35 UTC
It works correctly when I redo this test. I just have not deleted the disk first in the previous test. Sorry for the mistake. I think it is not a bug, and we can close it now.

Comment 3 Kamil Páral 2014-04-28 09:45:36 UTC
OK, uhm, so why haven't you closed it? Doing that now.
