Description of problem:

with multiple 4TB disks, I want to make software raid and install biosboot to all the disks. anaconda want to do it but forget to make biosboot partition.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhel 7.3 and rhel 7.4 beta1


How reproducible:
everytime


Steps to Reproduce:
1. use rhel 7.3 or 7.4 beta1 to install and select manual partition
2. create biosboot partition to multiple disks (this is default when you create bios biosboot partition)
3. anacoda said it will create biosboot to all disks, but when you click "done", you will see anaconda only make biosboot partition for only one disk.

Actual results:
anaconda make biosboot partition for only one disk


Expected results:
anaconda should make biosboot partition for every disk 


Additional info:

long time ago I found a workaround for this problem. but I forgot how and now I can not install rhel 7.3/7.4 beta1 at multiple 4TB disks under normal bios.

After evaluating this issue, there are no plans to address it further or fix it in an upcoming release.  Therefore, it is being closed.  If plans change such that this issue will be fixed in an upcoming release, then the bug can be reopened.

Hi:
   I just tried rhel 8.3 and 8.4 beta. the situation is the same.

Hello, 

There are no more composes created after 7.9 so even if we would fix your issue you would not be able to get the new installation media with the fix. If you want to fix this issue please clone the bug on RHEL-8 or RHEL-9.
