It will? If anaconda terminates abnormally the system usually will print
something to the screen then prompt to reboot, I thought.

If debugging then you could follow along on VT3 to watch the %post
script(s) stdout and stderr. If you mean logging of anticipated
failures, then IIRC there's a syslog output file left in /root or /tmp,
which I'd expect would be accessed via the usual API (syslog(3) or
logger(1)).
