And that's the exact same answer Kaushal was given on #centos earlier in the
day.  Let's not forget he was wanting an XFS /boot and / (and so using a
LiveCD was suggested to do the format and partition in advance of the
installer).  Then there was a desire to do it all within the installer, so it
was suggested you could just copy mkfs.xfs into the installer and do it by
hand in the shell.
