I recently installed Fedora Kionite but realized I messed up the root password. I attempted to reinstall it, but now Anaconda is throwing warnings during the post-installation script and fails to write the bootloader configuration. I've tried wiping my hard drive and even cleaned up ghost EFI partitions, but it still won't write the bootloader config. What should I do?

It sounds like you've run into some common issues. What specific warnings is Anaconda giving you? It might help to figure out what’s causing the bootloader problem. Also, how did you wipe your disk? Just curious!
I saw messages like 'running handleException' during the installation, which seems to link back to the bootloader error.
Did you use a specific program to wipe your drive? Tools like GParted or Anaconda's disk tool can be helpful. Just wondering what approach you took!
I actually used Windows Partition Manager for that.
I wiped it with a long format. But now I'm seeing a bunch of Python error messages. I'm going to try to grab the error logs from my SSD.
