sorry this bug is not fixed in the august 5th rawhide. reopening. Someone from the redhat devel mailing list (see aug4th boot.iso backtrace) thinks this is caused by not putting a / before the directory.
Yes, it is fixed. anaconda was not rebuilt on Friday, so the fix is not yet available. We'll probably rebuild today or tomorrow.
