Ah, you ran into a chestnut I recall from F16, it's caught out a few
people who do custom partitioning EFI installs. It's a bug that's in a
slightly annoying position because it's not really a blocker, but it
would be nice for anaconda team to treat it as a priority as it's
something of a bear trap.
