Description Jon Masters 2007-10-14 02:47:41 UTC 
Description of problem:

Anaconda's rescue mode (as used on the rescue CD images) offers to re-initialize
the partition table on blank disks. It should not do this, since it is not
actually performing an installation at the time. This serves only to concern
users that they might be accidentally wiping a good disk...and so should be removed.
