Will without fail crash during the "creating file system on root" step of the install.
After a great deal of time I have isolated that the difference is whether you install this machine (Which is a VM) with a scsi or virtio disk bus. scsi will reliably crash, virtio works.
Not sure if this is an anaconda bug, or a bug in qemu.
I have no files from /tmp because this is a hard crash: The whole emulator dies.
As soon as it gets to "formatting / filesystem" the spinner stops and the graphics console disappears and dies. This is what indicated that it may be a qemu issue with the scsi driver.
