V2 of the patch based on feedback from Dave Lehman and Vratislav - thanks !

Mounting of tmpfs partitions seems to work fine - I've been able to successfully install
a system with /home being on a tmpfs mount. :) The user home directory was successfully
created and populated, but after reboot, surprise, it was not there. ;)
One a more useful note, I've also tried installing with /var/log on a tmpfs mount
and the resulting system seemed to work just fine.

I've also changed the free space check from using df to using os.statvfs,
which made it quite a bit cleaner.
