Description of problem: running kernel-3.17.0-301.fc21 python-blivet-0.61.5-1.fc21 pykickstart-1.99.63-2.fc21 anaconda-21.48.10-1.fc21 and still seeing this issue. Maybe it is because I have selected three disks with an automatic LVM install across them?

https://www.happyassassin.net/temp/blivet-1109244.img is a current updates.img which should contain what, I believe, dlehman expects to fix this bug (a udev settle between writing partition flags and formatting). It's built against the blivet from 21 Beta TC3, blivet 0.61.4 - I don't know what's in the PPC build. Can folks who are hitting this please test with that updates.img , and/or let me know what blivet version is in the current PPC test images so I can create a different one? Thanks.
https://www.happyassassin.net/temp/blivet0615-1109244.img has the same patch, but against blivet 0.61.5 (pbrobinson tells me that's in the current PPC builds).
