This is actually an anaconda problem. Changing components.
I think that there is an error with the second cdrom. The kernel is having trouble reading the data from it, according to the following line from your attachment: <4>hdc: irq timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy } Did you run media check on these disks? I suspect that either the ISO you downloaded was corrupt or either something went wrong during burning the cdrom.
I will download or obtain another copy of the ISO image and try again. Thanks for the awesome fast response. I'll update this bug message with a status in the next 48 hours.
I tried new media (700mb cd copied from RH disk set) and still getting the same results. One thing I am noticing is that Anaconda, on the active screen is showing firstboot at 332K Bytes while the version on my CD's is 139,960 or about 140k bytes in size.

I tried another download of the iso for cd#2 and everything is working fine now. Please close the ticket. Thank You
