Created attachment 474765 [details] anaconda traceback and debug info Description of problem: Installer error and traceback upon [Next] from bootloader dialog page when askmethod, Local harddrive, USB VFAT produced by livecd-iso-to-disk. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-15.16 How reproducible: every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Compose install DVD from today's rawhide using pungi. 2. Make LiveUSB installer using https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_and_use_Live_USB#How_to_Make_a_bootable_USB_Drive_to_Install_Fedora_instead_of_using_a_physical_DVD. Patch livecd-iso-to-disk for bug #671900 (initrd.img supersedes install.img) 3. Boot DVD for Install with additional kernel parameter " askmethod". (Booting LiveUSB fails due to only a partial fix for bug #671900.) 4. Choose Local harddrive method, select the LiveUSB partition, leave Directory field empty. 5. Basic disks, Custom partitioning, select existing partition for /, reformat as ext4. Actual results: "ValueError: isys.umount() can only umount by mount point" upon [Next] from bootloader dialog page. Expected results: no error. Additional info:

Adding for review during F15Alpha meeting. I don't believe any "custom" partitioning scenarios can be considered for the Alpha criteria [1]. But I'd appreciate any additional input on the scope of this failure. [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_15_Alpha_Release_Criteria
*** Bug 676803 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
It's also triggered when testing F15-alpha-tc1 using repo=nfsiso:<server>:<path>.
Yeah, that should be fixed in the latest build (listed in the Fixed In Version) field too. I believe the TC1 one uses an earlier build, though.
Until TC#2 is available, an updates.img for use with TC#1 may help (see http://jlaska.fedorapeople.org/updates/f15-alpha-tc1.img)
AGREED: 671922 - Likely impacts Beta release criteria. Already fixed in anaconda-15.20, available in TC#2 for testing.
I'm no longer seeing this particular issue in TC2. However, a new issue has surfaced and will be tracked as bug#678414
fix confirmed in a stable anaconda release.
