It is recommended to format DASD disks with CDL (compatible disk layout) before starting the installation: # dasdfmt -d cdl -b 4096 <device> There are RHEL-7 RFEs to show a warning message and format LDL disks with CDL: Bug 1170653 - [RFE] Anaconda warning for LDL low level formatted disks. Bug 1170656 - [RFE] Anaconda action for CDL formatting for LDL low level formatted disks. This bug can be used to track the same RFE in Fedora. Isn't formatting the disk usually part of the installation process? (In reply to Neale Ferguson from comment #5) > Isn't formatting the disk usually part of the installation process? If you have LDL DASDs, no. There is no official support for LDL DASDs and never has been, and the installer does not properly detect or handle them. See the RFEs Jan linked in comment 4; those fixes will be pushed upstream and make their way into Fedora once I complete the work for them. Moving this to anaconda for f23, LDL patches need to be ported. This message is a reminder that Fedora 21 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 21. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '21'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 21 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 21 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-12-01. Fedora 21 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. Reopening since this issue is still present in Fedora 23. I was able to reproduce it as described in comment 0 with LDL DASD, but it is also possible to reproduce it right after starting VNC, without any user interaction in GUI. Logs will be attached.
