There may be something unusual about the layout of the disks in
question which is causing anaconda/blivet trouble. The contents of
/tmp/storage.log from an install attempt on the affected systems, and
'fdisk' or 'parted' output for the disks, would probably be useful. It
might also be useful to know if earlier Fedoras detect the partitions
correctly. Probably best to put all of that in a bug report. Thanks!
I stop installation when it doesn't detect the partitions, but I can
cetainly give fdisk and parted. I'll make the bug report. (I should add
that due to various and sundry issues, I don't know how much help I can
give anyone trying to debug, and yes, I realize how that makes it less
likely that this gets fixed)
