Is the group where it's listed into being specified on ks?

	The signature warning will always appear until you import the GPG
signing key, you can do so by running rpm --import
/usr/share/doc/rpm-*/RPM-GPG-KEY

	If the problem is anaconda complaining about the signature of
package during install (for your description before, I don't think that
its your case), you should retest package and ISO integrity.

	You've the information  on VT3 and VT4, as well as anaconda.log on
the installed system. If you're using %pre and %post scripts you can also
setup logging then copy the logs to target system in %post.
