How did you get back to the custom spoke? The traceback is from custom, but that's not accessible after starting the install.

Even with that, I think this is another size related error.
Comment 17 Steve Tyler 2012-11-05 20:35:10 UTC 
If the installer continues execution after what should have been a fatal error, the behavior is undefined ... :-)

I was doing a disk size edge-test. A disk-size edge-test calls for installing to a disc image slightly smaller or larger than what the installer says is required to install.

anaconda.log:

Maybe the installer is confusing GiB and GB ...
