I agree Peter. From my perspective things have been improving with anaconda. However, the exposure continues to be the previous disk layout especially those involving dmraid. When filing a bug, please be as specific as possible when outlining the "steps to reproduce." Order is very important for the custom disk partitioning. If a traceback occurs, the resulting traceback file (/tmp/anacdump.txt) and any screenshots are tremendously helpful. In the case of bug#492154, it appears that the previous OSX disk layout may be the culprit. I'm reaching out to the anaconda-devel folks for advice on further pinpointing this issue. I'll hopefully follow-up with more information. Thanks, James
