Looks like you're having dns lookup problems, probably because the virt
being used for the install isn't on the VPN. Or /etc/resolv.conf isn't
setup in the chroot environment.

In --novirt mode anaconda is running on the host so it might have
access to the VPN. %post --nochroot is a possibility, but you then have
to be very careful not to screw up the host system. eg. the path to
/boot will be /mnt/sysimage/boot/
