bootloaderInfo.py line 645, i runGrubInstall OSError: [error 2] No such file

while trying to kickstart install f9-i386 with anaconda 11.4.0.82
running I got the above error durring the writing bootloader phase.

Here is the last kickstart file I tried (which is basically the one I
generated using the kickstart configurator which is slightly different
[reduced] than the one I originally used and have used many times with
f8 and f7)

Also, the installer says (shortly before the bootloader phase) that it
is running the %post script, but NO debug file it writes appears on the
installed system.

Any help greatly appreciated in advance.
