Description of problem: Installing final tc3 into VM on fedora host booting netinstall from iso as cdrom. I was in the custom partiton space. It showed the previous instalation's partitions (created automatically by Fedora 19 Alpha). It also showed that there was 993Kb in unused space. So I was attempting to get that space back. The only way to do that (it appeared) was to increase the 33GB allocated to root ("/"). There was no other obvious way to recover that space. I am used to haveing full control of the partitioning of a new install. Last installation of a functioing system was Fedore 17. I skipped Fedora 18 because of the difficulty (imposibility of) partitioning the disk as I wanted. I use Raid 1 for all partitions, including boot, then copy the MBR to the second bootable drive to insure I can boot whane a disk goes bad. I couldn't do that with Fedora 18. I hope to be able to do that with Fedora 19. My assumption was that anaconda would not let me make the partiton bigger than is physically possible, and so adjust the size I entered. After changing the size from 33.xx GB to 34.xx GB and clicking on update button the VM froze for some minutes, after which the report bug dialgo came up. Please accept my vote to include an advanced disk setup space.

This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 19 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-01-06. Fedora 19 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
