I'm having the same problem during the installation of the i686 release of Fedora Server Alpha on VirtualBox. I didn't see the end of the post-installation process even after more than 1 hour of waiting. I've tried a clean install three times so far, with no success.
Comment 2 David Shea 2014-10-09 21:10:47 UTC 
Please attach the log files from the installation to this bug as inidividual, text/plain attachments.

Note if you're re-using your /home partition, anaconda will chown it to your new UID, which can take a long time. We should provide some kind of progress indicator I guess. See bug 986547.

It's getting stuck in one of anaconda's %post scripts, but I don't know which one or where. Can you include the output of `ps -ef' from when the error occurs? The most likely culprits are something going wrong with a restorecon or a journalctl command.

Looks like this was part of the mysterious anaconda-yum hangs, and anaconda-yum is on the way out.

The issue reproduces on VM install. Host is a hyper-v 2012 R2 server.
