Hello Maarten,

I would recommend passing "nostorage" on your kernel boot or append for
the installation and then specifying the following inside ks.cfg:

device scsi cciss

"nostorage" tells Anaconda to not load any storage-related kernel
modules.  "device scsi cciss" is telling it to only load cciss.  This
will get you past the lovely geometry warnings.
