Hello!

I've try to reinstall a machine with a 18TB XFS partition. the disk
has a single partition and a gpt label. 
I've created a kickstart file with the option to not format these partition.
the kickstart part is
part /foo --onpart=/dev/disk/by-uuid/3cff26a2-8358-460c-8817-caecd59e79ea --noformat

Now anaconda gives me the error message:

Your /foo partition is too large for xfs formatting (allowable size is 17164799 to
16777216 MB)

As I understood RHEL6 should support 100TB xfs partition so is this a bug?

best regards!
