I can reproduce this with an empty disk, looks like autopart fails on UEFI for some reason. Attaching logs.

Comment 7 Fedora Blocker Bugs Application 2015-07-20 15:59:15 UTC
Proposed as a Blocker for 23-alpha by Fedora user satellit using the blocker tracking app because:

 The installer must be able to complete an installation using any supported locally connected storage interface.

Comment 8 Petr Schindler 2015-07-20 17:03:06 UTC
Discussed at today's blocker review meeting [1].

This bug was accepted as Alpha blocker - This bug is a clear violation of the following Alpha criterion: "The installer must be able to complete an installation to a single disk using automatic partitioning."

Comment 9 Adam Williamson 2015-07-20 21:58:22 UTC
<dlehman> adamw: I just pushed that patch you tested earlier. Turns out I posted it for review last week. I didn't add the bug ref before pushing, unfortunately.

Comment 10 Adam Williamson 2015-07-31 20:31:49 UTC
Confirmed fixed in Alpha TC2.
