If you are trying to clean out the partitions anyway, you might try a
%pre section in you ks-file.
By simply doing something like "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/your_whole_disk
bs=512 count=5" you can overwrite the first blocks of the disk including
its partition-table before anaconda actually starts.

(yes, i know it sucks, but it should work)
