Discussed at 2015-08-20 blocker review meeting: http://meetbot-raw.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2015-08-20/f23-blocker-review.2015-08-20-16.05.log.txt . It's not entirely clear how serious or commonly encountered this is, or what exact circumstances trigger it. The fix is already pending and we're not frozen, so we agreed to defer the decision in the hopes that the fix will land and the bug will go away. devs, if you could explain when this happens and how serious it is that'd help if it somehow *doesn't* go away - I can see the code in question is basically turning one exception into another, but didn't have time to trace it out and see if something catches the FSError and does something useful with it or if it just fails nicer.

Sorry for my poor English. I noticed that this bug appears when I set in the BIOS to boot from the second hdd (sata 2) (on the first hdd i have windows 10 installed), so probably this is a hardware problem or some issue with compatibility with windows 10. (O_o) When in BIOS is set to boot from the first hdd (sata 1) - I can't reproduce this bug. su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update anaconda python-blivet' fix this bug for me, but after it i can't delete old partitions on my hard drives .

Glenn: we don't rebuild the Alpha images; milestones are frozen. See the "anaconda-core-23.17-1.fc23.x86_64" in your last report. The fix can be found in more recent nightly builds, or Beta TCs.

This should be OK in Beta, so dropping CommonBugs.
Still seeing this in released image! anaconda-23.19.10-1.fc23.x86-64, python3-blivet-1.12.8-1.fc23-noarch.
This should really be fixed, please attach the logs from /tmp to this bug as individual, text/plain attachments. Thanks.

(In reply to Vojtech Trefny from comment #40) > This should really be fixed, please attach the logs from /tmp to this bug as > individual, text/plain attachments. Thanks. Done. Sorry for the delay. What I've done: - booted in BIOS (legacy) mode - started installation - went to configure disks - chose manual partitioning (existing partitions: GPT disk, one ntfs, one BIOS boot partition, one swap) - chose btrfs - created / and /home as btrfs subvolumes - attempted to create /boot (which failed with this error)
I encountered the same error in Fedora 23 Workstation downloaded today, April 2nd 2016. ( I know probably this will be fixed in next release. ) However, these are the steps to reproduce: - Install Fedora in a system where you already used up a large number of partitions(in my case I have two for Win and 4 for Ubuntu). - As the LVM scheme won't work, switch to the Standard partition and add a new mount point - After adding the new mount point, you'll see "Failed to add new device - Click for details" to the bottom left of the screen. - Click on the link "Click or details": a popup will open, with the message "local variable 'e' referenced before assignment".
