We're still seeing, albeit not as often, VMs fail the install because our installer states it can't find the partitioned block devices. To try and alleviate this, I've added a simple
with open(dev, 'w'): pass
line to this function. This kicks off kernel and udev change events so, in theory, this should help bubble up the events through the kernel so the various symlinks get created in sysfs. We do this before waiting on the partitions to exist to try and jump start the process.
