Check to make sure that you have copied the .discinfo file from the
original ISO.  Without that, anaconda will think there is no CD in
place.  Also you could test loading the kickstart from a floppy and
using the original ISO for your CD.  If that works, it is definitely a
problem with the new ISO.
