Description of problem:
Anaconda is getting confused about how to deal with deleting and
re-creating partions during a new installation over a prior Fedora
installation.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Fedora Core 2 (test 3)
2. Start installing Fedora Core 2
3. Set installation type to "Custom"
4. Set partitoning method to "Automatic"
5. Set partition deletion to "All existing Linux"

Actual Results:  Anaconda crashes and allows me to write out a txt file.


Expected Results:  Anaconda should have continued on with the rest of
the installation

Additional info:

All Fedora Core Test {1,2,3} worked fine.

This is a Dell Latitude Laptop D840.

This is the file that is written out to the floppy just immediately
after the anaconda installation crashes.

Is this reproducible?
