Well, neither anaconda nor pyparted has seen much testing on sparc so it's entirely possible there's a bug there.  However, there's also a ton of scsi errors in your syslog that could be causing problems when manipulating disks.  I'm reassigning for now, and if those are harmless messages it can always get reassigned back.

It's saying that you're trying to transfer data that doesn't start on a hardware block boundary. This could be due to the way the CD was built.

Comment 4 Dennis Gilmore 2011-04-24 16:06:21 UTC
I worked with dlehman and he got me a working updates.img  there is a bug in parted thats causing a 19gb or so /boot partition but i was able to install and more importantly have a working system post install.

Comment 5 David Lehman 2011-06-07 18:13:47 UTC
I need to post the patches for this so they get into upstream git.

Comment 7 Fedora End Of Life 2013-04-03 20:32:50 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle.
Changing version to '19'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.)

This was clearly fixed long ago, closing.
