I got an error earlier that was caused by the pxe boot kernel files being different to what was on the iso, which I fixed following instructions in the following post: http://ask.cloudbase.it/question/405/...

Not sure if the above is related to the new error, but it looks like the vm can't mount the virtual floppy with the kickstart config file on it, I created a copy of the vfd and mounted it in a Windows VM and it mounts and the file seems to be valid, any ideas?

The same issue on my side. i also update the vmlinuz and initrd.img as described in mentioned link. The results are identical.
