No, clearly not. Unfortunately, the more I play with this new installer, the more breakage I encounter. Currently, I'm stuck even earlier and cannot "Unlock" my encrypted LV anymore. As soon as I try, no matter whether before or after Root, I get this crash: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/882351 That also means that I cannot revisit the original problem. As you say, I can ignore the ISO path, since filling it in crashes the installer, too, but now the installer crashes always when trying to access the /home I want to add, and I've unlocked it a few times before opening this thread. ;-) -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
