Hi all,

This the latest output from anaconda.log:-

06:08:54,828 DEBUG anaconda: new disk order: []
06:08:54,832 DEBUG anaconda: new disk order: []
06:08:54,851 DEBUG anaconda: stage1 device cannot be of type disk
06:08:54,865 DEBUG anaconda: _is_valid_disklabel(sda1) returning True
06:08:54,867 DEBUG anaconda: _is_valid_size(sda1) returning True
06:08:54,867 DEBUG anaconda: _is_valid_location(sda1) returning True
06:08:54,867 DEBUG anaconda: _is_valid_format(sda1) returning False
06:08:54,867 DEBUG anaconda: is_valid_stage1_device(sda1) returning False
06:08:54,867 ERR anaconda: BootLoader setup failed: failed to find a
suitable stage1 device
06:08:54,979 INFO anaconda: fs space: 0 B  needed: 2861.02 MiB

The relevant kickstart section is:-

clearpart --all --initlabel --drives=sda,sdb
ignoredisk --only-use=sda,sdb
# System bootloader configuration
part /boot/efi --fstype efi --grow --maxsize=200 --size=20 --ondisk=sda
bootloader --append=" crashkernel=auto" --location=mbr --boot-drive=sda1
autopart --type=lvm

So it's failing on the bootloader section.  I've tried with the following
line too:-

bootloader --append=" crashkernel=auto" --location=partition
--boot-drive=sda1

Still fails.

Thanks
