Comment 14 David Lehman 2012-09-07 17:32:09 UTC 
10:04:54,378 DEBUG anaconda: populate_right_side: existing 10751MB partition sda3 (5) with existing ntfs filesystem
10:04:54,384 DEBUG anaconda: min: 10886  max: 16777216  current: 10751.0

Looks like NTFS.minSize is telling us a value larger then the block device's current size in spite of this:

10:01:20,873 INFO program: Running... ntfsresize -m /dev/sda3
10:01:21,020 INFO program: ntfsresize v2012.1.15 (libntfs-3g)
10:01:21,021 INFO program: Minsize (in MB): 10636
Comment 15 David Lehman 2012-09-07 18:21:24 UTC 
Apparently we have some ancient code that adds 250 MB to the minimum size reported by ntfsresize -m. That's how the minimum size ends up greater than the current size. Now to figure out whether to keep that and, if so, how to deal with such nonsense.
Comment 17 David Lehman 2012-10-11 15:21:31 UTC 
This should be fixed in anaconda-18.13-1.
Comment 18 Adam Williamson 2012-11-23 01:35:52 UTC 
This bug looks to have been fixed for many anaconda builds now but missed being closed. If you find you are still experiencing it with Fedora 18 Beta (RC1) or later, please re-open the bug.
