This was reported as #243479 -- and fixed in commit
4efdd691a6321d764acb0780d519e0ac625056ec which never got applied to
the F7 branch.

I have a backported patch (attached), but it's quite tricky to test
it. I have to rebuild the anaconda rpm (not an easy task!) to have the
rpm avaialble during the livecd creation. So it's not tested as it
stands.
