I've never used kickseed, and I haven't used kickstart in a long

What syntax are you using?

Something like this should do it:

zerombr yes
clearpart --all
part /boot/efi --fstype=vfat --size=512
part /         --fstype=ext4 --size=20480
part /home     --fstype=ext4 --size=20480 --grow

You can use "DEBCONF_DEBUG=x" (maximum "x" is 5) on the kernel cmdline
and switch to another console when the installation fails to read the
error message(s).
