(Or, quite possibly, missed postings > on this list about it.) No, that's not usual, I've done many F25 installs to drives with existing partitions and they have been detected. (We also have several openQA tests that do this). 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.
