You wish.
If you have something installed and choose 'standard partition' and
'reclaim space' then anaconda crashes at the end of 'performing post-
intallation tasks' (or while trying to install the bootloader).
And the system is permanently "hung".

And 'performing post-installation tasks' takes an inordinate amount
of time before the crash happens.

I only managed to install TC3 'bare metal' by deleting all partitions
*before* trying an install.
