RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
The window for selecting the disks to be used for a mount point doesn't say clearly that only one of the selected devices will be used.
This could be confusing to the users, especially when configuring mount points/partitions that the user would like to have on multiple drives, like the biosboot partition. See bug 1956573.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL-8.6
anaconda-33.16.6.6-1.el8
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run graphical installation on a system with multiple disks
2. Proceed to the custom partitioning
3. Create for example a biosboot partition
4. Click the "Modify" button to select the device the partition will be placed on
Actual results:
The window says:
"Select one or more disks this device may reside on."
This could be understood that the device might be created on all of them.
Expected results:
It would be helpful to add a note that only one of the selected devices will be used for the device.
