Worked second time using exact same method
Well, now a different error :-/ KickStart Error: /usr/sbin/authconfig is missing. Cannot setup authentication. Running memory test to see if it is a hardware issue.
Memory test + CPU test passed. Trying install with 20151222.t.0

s/cfs/xfs/ in Comment 5.
doesn't seem to be a hardware problem.
Worked on the 4th time so this is an intermittent issue for now.
Reoccurred with RHCI-6.0-RHEL-7-20160115.t.0 First time: Panic that went off screen Second time: Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) Third time: Boot loader install failed Trying wiping partitions and reinstalling
From https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1228405 If so, I'd like to see the output from 'parted -s /dev/sda u s p free' It looks like grub2 didn't recognize the biosboot partition
Authentication error occurred again - splitting off to new bz.
Haven't seen this issue in QCI 1.2 -- moving to VERIFIED
