i'm running installutin f18-beta-netinst in VirtualBox, and selected btrfs partiton layout Package: anaconda-18.29.2 OS Release: Fedora release 18-Beta
You have a lot of errors in your syslog indicating trouble reading/writing to devices. anaconda cannot do anything about this.
I'm OK with fact, that anaconda couldn't do anything, but may be it is some other issue? (Shouldn't it be moved to other component). For me, as enduser, it looks like F18-Beta-netstall.iso 1. could not be installed in VirtualBox 2. (other issue) it cannot even start installution with kvm Where I should assign bugs about F18 in different virtual machines (qemu(kvm), xen, VirtualBox, VMWare)?..
problem seems to be with virtualbox's emulation of a sata device. (or a problem with the underlying sata device)
