The problem is the two disks are not identified as a single multipath device. So Anaconda then allows you to choose sda and sdb as installation destination and because these two have a single backing storage, the crash is expected. You should see a new `mpatha` device created by multipathd "on top" of sda and sdb and that's not happening here. This might be a workstation specific issue, because it seems to be working correctly for me with F44 server image with the "old" Anaconda.

Ok, this was easy to debug: the workstation live image doesn't have multipath installed so it is not supposed to work :-)
@vtrefny : thanks very much for your quick investigation ! Fedora-Workstation-Live-44-1.7.x86_64.iso multipath not installed lsblk shows two disks anacodna failure Fedora-Server-netinst-x86_64-44-1.7.iso multipath installed lsblk shows 1 disk installation finished successfully !!!, fedora was installed ---- is seems strange to me that different type of distro has different supported hw ... reopening
