Bah. Can&#8217;t say if this will appear on all new laptops\/desktops, but its definitely a possible problem that one should be aware of. mac-fdisk is what needs to be used in that case (use it manually in a console, so when anaconda gets to it, its all magically there).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fedora super-secret-project So, the wiki is setup, and a big thank you to Seth for that.
