Yes, I think its the same bug that causes troubles for you - I've left
a comment to re-open it.
What I find a bit alarming is, that the iscsi init-script was shipped by Fedora.
(Although for some reason nobody else seems to be affected)

As anaconda depends on the iscsi packages (... yeah ..), the only
solution I found was to just delete the script from /etc/initd/iscsi*
- now my system starts up fast again.

Thanks, Clemens
