(On one of them, which is Fedora only, and only a small amount of data in home, I worked around it by using "Use entire disk".) I don't see anything in Bugzilla, or in the RC-1.4 Test Matrix. I'm guessing this has to do with installing over an existing installation? I clean install each new version of Fedora and have never seen this error before.

Hum, thanks for the report. Can you file a bug with details on how to
reproduce, if possible? I can try and reproduce later. As there's a lot
of new partitioning stuff in webui, a higher rate of breakage is kinda
expected, but we should track it all down and get stuff fixed...
