I am able to determine that the error is due to being unable to mount 
the drive.
(/dev/d99009ca-09f4-4607-9176-c3a6f6863fa8)
So I tried to use /dev/md126p2 but it is still unable to mount the drive 
to access the ks.cfg.

I can see the above information using alt+f3 when I get to the error 
dialogue screen when trying to boot into the
preupgrade kickstart.
