Hi,
We have tied "The easy way" to create 'centos-7-docker.tar.xz', but getting following error on ./containerbuild.sh centos-7.ks

You're running into issues with anaconda in a containerized environment. I've not ever tested this to be run in a containerized environment. You may need to run it as a trusted container, and/or pass in /sys/ devices.
