Comment 2 James Laska 2011-04-25 13:40:32 UTC
Reproduced by doing a default x86_64 installation on a KVM guest using a custom (anaconda-15.28-1) boot.iso image.  The failure occurs after selecting which disks to partition, but prior to asking for confirmation before writing partition changes.  I believe step=autopartitionexecute.

This qualifies as a Final release blocker per the following criteria [1]: 

   "The installer must be able to create and install to any workable partition layout using any file system offered in a default installer configuration, LVM, software, hardware or BIOS RAID, or combination of the above "

Appears related to 1605b399f34ac923c457088d182da9db021191c8 (fixes another proposed F15 blocker bug#695389) ?

Comment 5 James Laska 2011-04-25 18:45:41 UTC
Discussed this issue with clumens, we both agreed that this issue looks like a clear blocker bug given the ease in reproducing and the stated criteria in comment#3.  Adding whiteboard:AcceptedBlocker.

14:43:56  clumens: sounds like a blocker to me
