Oops, sorry, forgot to attach this yesterday.

Comment 3 Chris Lumens 2009-04-28 17:27:09 UTC
Looks like iutil.isEfi doesn't work correctly on ia64, which is what's causing these values to not get set right in the first place.  This should be fixed in the next build of anaconda.  Thanks for the bug report.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 11 development cycle.
Changing version to '11'.
