I can't reproduce this with anaconda-18.12 which is in the Beta TC2 compose.

Can you retest?

I could not reproduce it (on two kvm guests) but i got this instead

it says "no disk selected" and remains greyed out (reboot needed to relaunch anaconda).

Comment 17 Jesse Keating 2012-10-05 01:15:08 UTC
Ok, I'm going to close this bug.  A new bug can be opened if you can reproduce the issue you just mentioned (after giving it a few minutes to reset)

the bug is alive

i will try to reproduce it again to note the steps in detail, it took me by surprise to see this.

Comment 19 Reartes Guillermo 2012-10-10 00:42:02 UTC
By the way, ABRT does not open another bug, it points to this one.

Comment 20 Reartes Guillermo 2012-10-10 00:43:13 UTC
can this bug be re-opened?

Comment 21 Reartes Guillermo 2012-10-16 01:09:15 UTC
i was trying to reproduce another bug.
i was switching back and forth manual to automatic partitioning and with either one, two disks.

Are you still hitting this with anaconda-18.28 or later?

Comment 25 Michal Ambroz 2013-01-26 17:14:55 UTC
1) booted LiveCD of Fedora 18 in order to upgrade/reinstall the installation on harddrive
I have created bootable USB disk for that

2) I choosed to install to harddrive

3) Clicked "Storage" in order to choose partitions which to overwrite

4) Clicked "Encrypt my data" as the LVM volume and standalone partitions I have are already encrypted

5) in "Installation options" popup dialog I choosed "I do not need help; let me customize disk partitioning"
and pushed "Reclaim space"

6) Manual partitioning dialog pop-ed up, but after while it crashes

I have really non-standard partitioning - I guess that some of that freaks the installator to death:
   Device		size		Id	System
/dev/sda1	050G	07	HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda2	004G   	83	/boot ext3
/dev/sda3	016G  	83	Ubuntu / ext3 encrypted
/dev/sda4        		05	Extended
/dev/sda5	016G	83	/ for Fedora - LUKS encrypted ext3
/dev/sda6	016G	83	/home - LUKS encrypted ext3
/dev/sda7	004G	83	swap - LUKS encrypted swapfs
/dev/sda8	050G	07	HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda9	320G	8e	LUKS encrypted LVM volume with 3 logical drives
