I'm sorry that was a typo. Here is the crrect KS file. I have just tried
this one and I get the same error as explained in the earlier email.

When it retrieves netsgt1.img, it has to put it _somewhere_ (I'm not
sure offhand where it goes, i.e. on which partition).  

You have:

part /boot  --size 35
part swap --size 128
#part /  --size 1000 --grow
#part /  --size 1000 --grow
part /u00 --size 1000 --fs xfs --grow

I'm not sure how the installer interprets this - you've only defined a
/boot and /u00?  How does "/" wind up getting sized then?  It just
sounds like you're running out of room somewhere.
