An error occurred during reading the kickstart file: The following problem 
occurred on line 32 of the kickstart file:
Disk "/dev/disk/by-path/platform-APMC0D33:01-ata-1.0" given in ignoredisk 
command does not exist.
The installer will now terminate. Pane is dead

Issue: In RHEL 7.3/7.4/7.5 & CentOS 7.3/7.4, in /dev/disk/by-path/... 
the path name "platform-APMC0D33:01-ata-1.0" has decimal extension i.e. "1.0"

In Fedora 27, in /dev/disk/by-path/... 
the path name "platform-APMC0D33:01-ata-1" has no decimal extension i.e. "1"

When using disk specific targeting for OS install on systems with more than 1 
installable device, this inconsistency causes issues with automation and common 
kickstart
