Also, are you 100% certain that the partitions are all mounted
when anaconda tries to install?

Use the custom partitioner in the installer, don't use the defaults.
partition it as follows,

swap 1X your DRAM size, you can use less if you want, 1G is probably
sufficient.
/home The remainder of your space.
