Never mind that, I forgot to copy my kickstart config file onto the
initrd image...

Now I get another error... 

        Error mounting device sda5 as /: No such device

Switching to terminal 2, and using the shell there:

        sh-2.04# mkfs.xfs -f /tmp/sda5
        mkfs.xfs: warning - cannot set blocksize on block device
        /tmp/sda5: Invalid argument

But the disk is getting 'formated' with XFS... Trying to mount
it:

        sh-2.04# mount -t xfs /tmp/sda5 /mnt/sysimage/
        mount failed: No such device

Checking the output on tty5, I see the warnings from mkfs.xfs
on ALL the devices I try to use...

The devices:

        sh-2.04# ls -l /tmp/sda*
        brw-------   1 root     0          8,   0 Feb 22 05:24 //tmp/sda
        brw-------   1 root     0          8,   1 Feb 22 05:24 //tmp/sda1
        brw-------   1 root     0          8,   5 Feb 22 05:24 //tmp/sda5
        brw-------   1 root     0          8,   6 Feb 22 05:24 //tmp/sda6

The output from fdisk looks good (to cumbersome to 'rewrite' here :).

Part of my ks.cfg file:

        zerombr yes
        clearpart --all
        part /boot --size 100
        part /tmp --size 200
        part swap --size 133
        part / --size 500 --grow
        install
