I worked around this in the past by modifying usr/lib/anaconda/kickstart.py in the stage2.img and adding dispatch.skipStep("methodcomplete") to the list in the setSteps function.
I think I tried the other patch you mentioned only to run into the cdrom device or mount point being deleted before %post. I have the skipStep method written down in my notes so I believe that's what I settled on.

How big are the files? If they are small enough, you can use an old

copy the files there in the %pre, then you can mount and access that ram

Far too big for that :-)
Someone has offered to send me a patched image, but... this has been
known about for 18 months now. In Bugzilla, a fix is promised in 5.2, but
that never happened, and nobody at Red Hat has updated since.

Very frustrating.
