Hi all,

We are hitting an error in the centos 7 installation with our kickstart configuration.

Can somebody suggest a quick workaround for the above anaconda error.

We feel that Red hat has acknowledged this issue, but not sure, when can we get the fix for this.

Is there any workaround for this?
