Besides the problem with the dd (which it seems like you remedied now), this smells like an SELinux issue.  Do you have SELinux enabled (i.e. run "getenforce")?  Are there any messages in /var/log/audit/audit.log or /var/log/messages saying that the read was denied?  If SELinux is indeed enabled, as a test try disabling it by running "setenforce 0", and then starting the install again.
