[lug] RH 7.3/anaconda/kickstart problem

[D. Stimits]

After the prior kickstart ended up helping out so much, I decided to try 
and do this with a more bare-bones install on an old P166. I keep 
running into an anaconda crash dump, I'm not sure if it is related to 
the kickstart disk, or just the install in general. The only thing that 
looks out of place to me is that I specified 101 key keyboard during the 
"interactive" confirmation. Results do not change whether I use text or 
graphical modes, and regardless of nofb or not. The start of the 
kickstart file is (the "\" to continue lines and avoid email wrap are 
not really there, I added this only to the email):

The dump I get is rather long, but here is a cut down snippet:
