Install to fixed layout failure log

Tried to install to fixed layout (custom)
  /dev/sda1 - /boot
  /dev/sda2 - /
  /dev/sda3 - swap

Comment 3 Jeremy Katz 2008-02-21 14:28:49 UTC
Should be fixed up with git anaconda (note: bugs when installing from the livecd
should usually be filed against anaconda as opposed to livecd)

Comment 4 Gary Thomas 2008-02-21 14:37:57 UTC
Two questions:
  * How do I rebuild the anaconda RPM using the git tree?  [I'd like to
    use any official mechanism so my methodology doesn't impact results]
  * Does this close both failures (LVM and custom)?
