I've given up using anaconda on my targets. I almost always
install now into a virtual machine, partition a hard disk
manually, then guestmout and rsync the virtual install
onto a real disk partitioned the way I want it :-).

Need to clean up UUIDs and such, and chroot into it to
run the grub install, but one big advantage is that the
system is up and running the entire time I'm doing the
install into the virtual machine.
