fc6 install on pSeries with the following partitioning: - PReP boot - 1GiB swap - ext3 rootfs The installer doesn't let me -- it says there's no boot partition close enough to the beginning of the disk for OpenFirmware. That's not true -- the above scheme would work fine.
Per IBM (long ago, but nevertheless), the /boot bits need to be below 4G and so anaconda enforces that. It's easy to not have that check, but I'm not going to pull it unless we are 110% sure that it won't break things.
OK, that makes a certain amount of sense -- but can we have the message tell us that? (the 4GiB bit).
Changing at this point breaks all the translations -- we can improve the message post-fc6
