Description of problem: Directly following writing partition changes to disk, the following dialog is displayed: Change disc - Please insert the Fedora disc to continue. I am installing from standard DVD install media. The install does not continue if OK is selected. How reproducible: Always on my machine at least. Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install from DVD using basic video driver. 2.Go through install prompts until it is no longer possible to proceed. Actual results: Install does not continue. Expected results: Asking for media that is already present should not happen and the install should continue. Additional info: I will provide any logs necessary, but didn't know what would be valuable. Please tell me what can be done to debug this.
Please attach /tmp/storage.log to this bug report. Thanks.

This is another example of a CD/DVD drive without an ID_FS_TYPE field that anaconda relies on to tell that there's installable media.
What should be done next then? Is there at least a work around available? If not I'll try to find another drive, but this seems like a major problem that needs addressing.
I would need the output of: # /lib/udev/cdrom_id --debug /dev/sr0

Is this the output from within the installer with the medium inserted?

I assumed you wanted output from the anaconda console. If it is useful I can provide output from a normal F14 install.

Your drive might be one of these drives, which has to be polled several times, until the medium shows up. In dracut I do this in my main loop. Not sure, if anaconda polls cdrom drives.
Perhaps important to note is that the DVD is actually ejected (I'm sorry for not mentioning this earlier). I did try putting the DVD back in and selecting OK without success. Also, I did perform the initial media check and it was successful.
It appears that whatever oddness I was experiencing with the beta has been fixed in the final release.
