/etc/hosts on server vm:

127.0.0.1   localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 
localhost4.localdomain4
::1         localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 
localhost6.localdomain6
192.168.122.105 master.example.com master

Unfortunately no ipaserver-install.log was created on vm (investigating 
why). I'm using freeipa-server-2.1.4.1. All the packages on system are 
from actual updates-testing repository.

I've updated the scripts to put whole ipaserver-install.log and 
/var/log/messages into log file when installation crashes.
