https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/spin-kickstarts.git/commit/?id=4dc7946ad46869e3b78231ed11b0436d14456be8 works around this. That's the way it's supposed to work. --location=none installs the package and config files, but does not install the actual bootloader. bootloader --disabled skips the bootloader package entirely. bug 1074522 is where this was added. Well but could you please add this information to the Documentations? It is confusing. BTW when selecting "Do not install bootloader" on the Anaconda graphical installer it is actually using `bootloader --location=none` rather than `bootloader --disabled`, and I think it would be better if (1) new users can be informed about this when s/he wanna skip grub installation and (2) the user merely wants to skip grub and do not want to bother with the kickstart file.
