[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

I have a HP ProBook 470 G2, 750GB disk. Formatted by manufacturer, then
repartioned by gparted 3.2 on Fedora 20 x86_64. The original windows
partitions have been resized and moved to make way for a Fedora 22 (TC4)
install.

During start of the Fedora installer (Anaconda), a backtrace occurs in
libparted.

I've created a live USB stick and booted that, which succeeds on the
machine.

Trying many parted commands fails with the same error. The information
from command just generates the same backtrace:

I can post the MBR data somewhere if that is useful. (tell me what you
need).

Dave.
