Fails how? Are any error messages seen on the other virtual consoles?
(Alt+F2, F3 etc.)

If anaconda is still behaving strangely w.r.t. package ordering, try
section 9 of:
http://rau.homedns.org/twiki/bin/view/Anaconda/CustomizingAnaconda
(you can ignore the rest of that page, as you're not rebuilding anaconda
as a whole.)
