Assigning to him.
Comment 2 John Reiser 2010-02-04 20:14:33 UTC 
Not in anaconda-13.25 of Feb.4, despite being ACKed on Jan.29:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/anaconda-devel-list/2010-January/msg00588.html
and I need it again.
Comment 3 James Laska 2010-02-05 17:06:41 UTC 
Greetings John, looks like the patch didn't get pulled into anaconda-13.25, but will be in the next build.

In the meantime, you can confirm the fix by using the updates image located at http://jlaska.fedorapeople.org/updates-560477.img

For information on how to use an updates.img, see http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Updates.

I've tested the updates.img noted previously, and not encountered this issue.  I'll move this bug to CLOSED RAWHIDE once anaconda-13.27 (or newer) is available for test.
Comment 6 James Laska 2010-02-24 18:12:01 UTC 
I'm not able to hit this issue using F-13-Alpha-RC2 (anaconda-13.29).
