This is a really annoying bug.  In my opinion there is no good really to
mount /dev/sda1, the /boot partition from my previous install...

I was able to work around the bug by adding this to the %pre section in
the kickstart config:

# --  Hack starts! block installer mounting /dev/sda1 on /media
# We do this...by mounting the install media (/dev/sd0 or /dev/sd?) onto /media 
first!
# so when the installer tries it's bad mount it silently fails
INSTALL_MEDIA=$(mount | grep /cdrom | grep -E -o '/dev/[^ ]*')
mount "$INSTALL_MEDIA" /media
# -- Hack ends


This might also work around the 33% partition freeze on /dev/sda1...I can't 
trigger that any more so can't test it.
