Patches for both anaconda-20.25.16-1 (F20) and anaconda-21.48-3 (F21) in 
under development now.  I basically got it working for regular, 
kickstart and live installs and just doing some testing.  I am having 
some difficulty doing an F21 netinstall and I cannot find a TC7 
distribution DVD.  This should not a a blocker and it is small/simple 
enough that if the functionality is OK with anaconda developers I would 
expect it to be in the beta.

When ready ("real soon now") I will post to anaconda-patches and put 
some updates.img files out on my website.
