Description of problem: The current version of anaconda does not support the GPT disk partition used on the new Intel Macs. This prevents using Fedora on these Macs Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Rawhide (tested with 06-Jun-01) How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot from current Fedora rescue / install CD 2. Anaconda warns about GPT partition and wants to erase it 3. Actual results: Anaconda warns about GPT partition and wants to erase it Expected results: Anaconda should be able to handle GPT partitions Additional info: Current versions of GRUB (0.97+) and parted are also required
We're supposed to be getting a few of the mactels this week -- once we do that, I'll enable the support. Right now, we don't allow GPT on x86 because most boxes will then be left in a non-booting state. So I want to do it in a way that will avoid people ending up with non-booting boxes.
OK, thanks. Any chance this will make it for inclusion in FC6t1?
With the installer/recue CD from rawhide (17-Jun-06) I managed to install FC6 on my MacBook succesfully!
