I think I found the bug (variable has been set to a wrong value).

Can you please test ftp://people.redhat.com/karsten/formatmnt ?

The easiest way without having to unpack the initrd.img is this:

- download the formatmnt binary to a Linux system 
- ipl your VM
- when you're prompted to log in via ssh/telnet execute this 
  command from the Linux machine with the new binary:
  cat formatmnt | ssh root@VM_to_install cat \> \/sbin\/formatmnt
