That might seem logical, but logic didn't seem to play any part in the design of the parts of anaconda that purport to have something to do with partitioning. I did indeed install on partitions I setup manually outside of anaconda, but I did it by installing in a virtual machine then copying the virtual machine disk image to my desired root partition and fixing the grub config to change the UUIDs and other disk references: http://home.comcast.net/~tomhorsley/game/f18-install.html There is no way I would let an interface that won't let you discover what it plans to do install on my system (and will only indirectly let you ask it to do something - it is sort of like playing billards - you have to setup elaborate bank shots and hope the ball falls in the right partition). -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
