You're overdramatizing here: as you say in the bug report, this only hits
people with more than 15 partitions on a PATA disk. This hasn't been supported
ever since libata was introduced in Fedora 7. There's a big margin between an
empty disk and a disk with 16+ partitions, so claiming it will only install on
an empty disk is misleading.
