Description of problem: This happened while testing bug 1163410 comment 1. I used a standard ext4 partition, that I tried to shrink in a guided dialog. I selected a value somewhere in the middle of the shrinking slider and confirmed. Version-Release number of selected component: anaconda-core-21.48.13-1.fc21.x86_64 The following was filed automatically by anaconda: anaconda 21.48.13-1 exception report Traceback (most recent call first): File "/tmp/updates/blivet/devices.py", line 1550, in _setTargetSize raise ValueError("new size will not yield an aligned partition") File "/tmp/updates/blivet/devices.py", line 752, in <lambda> lambda s, v: s._setTargetSize(v), File "/tmp/updates/blivet/deviceaction.py", line 443, in apply self.device.targetSize = self._targetSize File "/tmp/updates/blivet/devicetree.py", line 492, in registerAction action.apply() File "/tmp/updates/blivet/__init__.py", line 1381, in resizeDevice self.devicetree.registerAction(action_class(device, new_size)) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/ui/gui/spokes/lib/resize.py", line 439, in _scheduleActions self.storage.resizeDevice(device, Size(obj.target)) ValueError: new size will not yield an aligned partition Additional info: cmdline: /usr/bin/python /sbin/anaconda --liveinst --method=livecd:///dev/mapper/live-base --updates=https://dlehman.fedorapeople.org/updates/updates-1163410.0.img cmdline_file: BOOT_IMAGE=vmlinuz0 initrd=initrd0.img root=live:CDLABEL=Fedora-Live-Workstation-x86_64-2 rootfstype=auto ro rd.live.image quiet rhgb rd.luks=0 rd.md=0 rd.dm=0 executable: /sbin/anaconda hashmarkername: anaconda kernel: 3.17.2-300.fc21.x86_64 other involved packages: anaconda-gui-21.48.13-1.fc21.x86_64 product: Fedora" release: Fedora release 21 (Twenty One) type: anaconda version: Fedora

David, is this caused by your updates.img, or a generic bug in anaconda/blivet? In that latter case I think I should propose it as a blocker.
This is caused by the updates image from 1163410. It needs a newer anaconda, which I didn't include in the image.
I can retest with F21 TC2, if you rebase the updates.img.
I wasn't able to hit this with https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/python-blivet-0.61.10-1.fc21,anaconda-21.48.15-1.fc21 . But, for the record, it was very hard to hit even with the original version.
By accident I reproduced this again, reported as bug 1165714. I guess it can be marked as a duplicate of this one?
I'm proposing this as a Final blocker. It's not easy to reproduce and I don't know about any reliable reproducer. But it seems to be happening quite often (twice in a few days for me), and the only thing needed is using the guided partitioning. That is likely to break some of the guided part criteria: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_21_Beta_Release_Criteria#Guided_partitioning David, your input for blocker bug meeting purposes would be very welcome, either here or by attending in person. Thanks.
Let's keep 1165714 open since it does not depend on the updates image.
Closing this bug in favor of bug 1165714, transferring blocker nomination. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1165714 ***
