Great.

When it tries to mount the iso the error line is:

mount: /run/install/isodir/Fedora-Server-netinst-i386-23_Alpha failed to
setup loop device: no such file or directory.
Try a shorter file name. The .iso suffix is chopped in your error message.
I typed the error and left off the .iso but I renamed the iso to Fedora.iso anyhow, got the same result.

Maybe also try removing the kickstart file definition from the config for now, just to make sure it does not affect it somehow.
Removing the ks reference resulted in the same results.
And then displays the error /dev/root does not exist.
That just says "I couldn't find any partition to mount as the root filesystem" (and /dev/root is probably the default value). The root partition is in that iso file, but it failed to mount, so there's none. This error message is a direct consequence of the previous one.

Is there anything else I can try?
