I'll repeat what I said the last time this was posted: NO f*cking way the Fedora guy got past the partition configuration step without pulling at least a few hairs out! I love Fedora, but that UI is just cursed!
Am I the only one that’s not had trouble with it? What’s the big issue?
I love Anaconda, but I will admit the partition management isn't very intuitive. That is the only thing I can ding it on though, in every other regard it's an amazing installer.
I just had to imagine you facing the fedora installer's partitioning tool:![](https://sh.itjust.works/pictrs/image/cff86450-d52e-4f4c-acb3-947e983ed66c.jpeg)
Just wipe everything and select automatic partitioning
this is the way
on my main system i have arch with a partitioning scheme that has worked well for me because i took time to research and identify what i needed from it. i even got full disk encryption working after the fact!
on fedora i click automatic partitioning, wipe the drives i want, and don't do more than that because the partitioning screen feels extremely confusing.
