Hello there!
I'm trying to install an oVirt node(the most stable recent one) on a machine(just in
case you didn't figure from the title :P) and anaconda just crashes \o/
I've tried to start anaconda in text mode, but the error is the exact same.
Here's a screenshot of the event(text mode, although it shouldn't matter):

The only "disk" attached to the machine has no partitions, it's absolutely
clean. The machine in question is a PowerEdge M520, if that matters, and I'm trying to
install on top of a pair of 32GB mirrored SD cards.
I installed CentOS7 on a machine that's virtually the same(they're the exact same,
but aren't the same machine) and didn't have any problem.
I just have no idea. Never encountered such problem. So any help would be very
appreciated. Thanks ^^

Can you wipe the beggining of both SD cards via 'dd' ?I have seen similar issues
on CentOS's anaconda with extraordinary disk setups.

So, following your advise, what I did was "dd status=progress if=/dev/zero
of=/dev/sda count=1" and that did indeed fix the anaconda starting up issue.
By the way, when I said mirrored, it's raid 1, so if I do to one, I do on both at the
same time. The raid is being done and managed on the bios. Maybe poor wording on my side.
The thing is, as soon as I try to create partitions/LVMs it returns me an error.
Here's the three different outputs:
LVM Thin Provisioning https://i.imgur.com/tfbi0oo.jpg (curiously, it's the same output
error as when it crashed)
LVM https://i.imgur.com/nJXo3aK.jpg
Standard Partition https://i.imgur.com/j6gNRpo.jpg
After taking the screenshots above, I tried the same process using a CentOS7 minimal image
on text mode to see the output, and there's no error output what so ever.
Out of curiosity, I tried with a 4.3.3 ovirt node image and I had similar error as
above(above I'm using 4.3.4) with a slight different wording, but still the same
issue.

I ended up just installing CentOS. Wasn't my preferred way, but it gets things done.
