Attempted to created btrrs /, /home and /data with redundancy and performance check boxes checked. Also created swap and /boot as standard partitions. Error occurred after selecting begin installation and while typing root password. This bz may be the same as closed 865985.
Accepted LV auto partitioning on 4 VD VM except reduced /home to 10 GB and created btrfs /data partition to use up rest of space. Created root passward and back to installation then error while formatting (?). Package: anaconda-18.24 OS Release: Fedora release 18-Beta-TC7
Sorry we've not gotten to this yet. Can you please retest with F18 beta and if you are still hitting it, attach the fresh traceback? Thanks.
OK, so here goes. Tried to recreate as best I could with F18Beta, but I probably did not exactly duplicate the VM I used originally. I got an error, but bugzilla said it was a duplicate, bz 865985, which I do get frequently with VMs. That bug was closed as not a bug due to what looked like hardware problems. I wonder? I kept the logs. Here is what I tried with the 4 disk VM: selected standard partitioning and custom. Created /, /home and /data as standard partitions then customized them to btrfs with redundancy and performance. swap and /boot were standard. No errors found by the partitioner. After entering the root password the error occurred. Do you want the logs?
Tried again. Deleted the partitions created in previous attempt and allowed automatic btrfs partitioning create layout. Got bz 865985 again. Did not keep logs.
this problem was probably due to a malformed VD. Closing.
