Description of problem: I selected both a sd card reader (shown as a 0b drive) and the internal ssd, then i atempted automatic partitioning but it failed. Anaconda should recognize that card readers are not disks, when multiple disk selections are made. For example, in this case the bootloader was going to be installed in the 0b card reader... The following was filed automatically by anaconda: anaconda 18.37.11 exception report Traceback (most recent call first): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/ui/gui/spokes/lib/resize.py", line 168, in populate self._diskStore[itr][PERCENT_COL] = int((diskReclaimableSpace/disk.size)*100) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/ui/gui/spokes/lib/resize.py", line 229, in refresh self.populate(disks) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/ui/gui/spokes/storage.py", line 753, in _show_resize_dialog resizeDialog.refresh(disks) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/ui/gui/utils.py", line 30, in wrap func(*args) ZeroDivisionError: division by zero Additional info: cmdline: /usr/bin/python /sbin/anaconda cmdline_file: initrd=initrd.img inst.stage2=hd:LABEL=Fedora\x2018\x20i386 quiet BOOT_IMAGE=vmlinuz executable: /sbin/anaconda hashmarkername: anaconda kernel: 3.6.10-4.fc18.i686 other involved packages: package: anaconda-18.37.11 product: Fedora release: Cannot get release name. type: libreport version: 18

If one selects the sd card reader alone, anaconda will correctly say that there is no space, but when selecting multiple disks, it will fail.
I think this will be taken care of by my patch for bug 903131, which will just throw out disks of zero size from consideration by anaconda.
Reartes, can you confirm if this is fixed in current builds? Thanks!
I don't have the netbook at the moment, but i will test it in some days. I don't remember very well, but i think that comment #10 was right and it was fixed, i will confirm it later.
I tested 2 netboos with an non-populated sdcard reader. (one is the original netbook reported in the description). Anaconda no longer displays the sdcard reader in INSTALLATION DESTINATION as a selectable disk when it does not have a sd card inserted. (and it shows it up when it does have a sd card plugged). This bug-report can definitively be closed safely.
Great, thanks!
