Anaconda/Kickstart Issue - Unable to satisfy 'Installation Destination' spoke by default

[ndemers]

I've recently been attempting to automate installation of a slightly modified version of CentOS 7 via a custom kickstart file. What I'm trying to achieve is a "semi-automated" install...where all parameters for installation are set, but you still have to manually initiate the installation (IE, it's not fully automated but has all the information that would be necessary for that).

I've run into issues satisfying the 'Installation Destination' Spoke automatically, though...no matter what options I try in the kickstart, it always has a "!" indicating a problem/missing information. When I manually enter the menus for selecting the disk, partitioning scheme, etc, all options are already set to what I've specified in my kickstart file, and after going through them all the spoke seems happy, with an "X" next to it. I'm puzzled by why merely stepping through, without making any new selections or edits, is enough to switch it from "!" to "X". I've looked in anaconda.log, storage.log, and program.log for an error that could cause this, but I don't see any errors.

Here's my kickstart file as it looks now:

%end

Anyone have a clue what's missing? I've tried specifying the drive via its full "/dev/by-path/" name instead of 'nvme0n1' and using manual partitioning instead of automatic partitioning, just as guesses, but that didn't help.

For reference, I've uploaded some screenshots of what the screen looks like when I enter the installer, at each step as I go through the 'Installation Destination' spoke (without making changes), and the installer main menu afterwards. I've also uploaded the anaconda, storage, and program logs. The version of Anaconda is 21.48.22.134-1.el7.centos. Let me know if any other information would be helpful, and thanks for the help!
