Please file a bug against anaconda, and be sure to attach the anaconda.log from your installation. Given the nature of your installation, I recommend you also attach program.log, storage.log and syslog. These files are available while the installer is running in /tmp/. After installation, they are available on the installed system in /var/log/anaconda/ Additional guidance available on that wiki at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_debug_installation_problems#Log_Files Thanks, James
