Hi!

I created a ks.cfg with mkkickstart from a fresh-installed RH7.
downloaded the updated img-file for anaconda, put the ks.cfg on the boot-
disk, bootet from installation-floopy with the following commands:
linux updates ks=floppy
RH asks for the updates, and then pops up with the folowing error:

 Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 438, in ?
    intf.run(todo, test = test)
  File "/var/tmp/anaconda-7.0.1//usr/lib/anaconda/text.py", line 1030, in 
run
    rc = apply (step[1](), step[2])

When I add this options:
part /boot --size 20 --asprimary
part / --size 200 

anaconda complains about (afaik)
'no root device set'
and reboots. :-(
