Do you have a swap file listed in /etc/fstab?
Seems like this is source of problem: $ cat /etc/fstab /dev/VGST3120026A/fedora / ext3 defaults 1 1 /dev/VGST3120026A/home /home ext3 defaults 1 2 UUID=3c747db0-3b7f-4385-a32c-2d4bff643773 /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/VGST3120026A/swap swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/VG00/LV01 swap swap defaults 0 0 I don't know where did this last line came from... but it looks like it's causing the problem. I think that installer should be able to handle such situation anyway (like ignore all nonexisting entries in /etc/fstab). Thanks for finding solution so quickly.
