I had the same problem and I fixed it by editing /usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/mk-
images.i386, here there is a line to load all the fs modules ie msdos vfat ext3
reiser and xfs, I changed it to include pagebuf and xfs_support
I noticed that this error shows up as buildinstall complaining
that "unresoved" "symbols" etc not being found in the kernel. When this error
appears in the buildinstall output the resulting image gives problems.
The same bug bit me while making modified 7.1 installer too, but then the
problem manifested it self when doing linux rescue and the installer crashing
while searching for Redhat installations. I still have not worked out how to
modify the dependencies etc for the new anaconda 7.2 and am working on that now.

Ajay
