Petr, Or anyone that can help,

Should the root= parameter work from a virt-install kickstart as well?  

virt-install --connect=qemu:///system \
--network=bridge:virbr0 \
--initrd-inject=./fed.ks \
--extra-args="root=live:CDLABEL=Fedora\x2018-Alpha-TC1\x20x86_64 ks=file:/fed.ks console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200 serial" \
--name=f18 \
--disk path=/data/VirtualMachines/f18.img,format=qcow2 \
--ram 1024 \
--vcpus=1 \
--check-cpu \
--hvm \
--location=/data/isos/F18TC1_x86_64.iso \
--nographics

I realize that won't resolve the anaconda issue that's being fixed but, shouldn't this get past the issue mounting the root filesystem?  Or, am I missing something?

Thanks,
Scott
