Description of problem: Anaconda is not consistent in partitioning. When I do manual installation in TUI, anaconda creates native (/ on ext4 partition), automated partitioning in GUI creates LVM. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora-18-Beta-TC7 anaconda-18.24-1.fc18 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start Fedora installation in text mode, go through all the steps and finish the installation. 2. After reboot check the partitioning layout created by anaconda 3. Start Fedora in GUI, and on partitioning step just tell anaconda to create partitions for you, not changing anything 4. After reboot check the partitioning layout created by anaconda Actual results: Anaconda creates LVM by default in manual GUI installation, but ext4 in manual TUI installation Expected results: Anaconda should behave consistently, and so I suppose create LVM in TUI too.
