So the script was one on your install cd setting things like timezone from your information? The other things you gave it were keyboard, & perhaps locale. If they aren't wildly off, it should be harmless. But whatever it was going to do next isn't done.
Kickstart file? Must have misread things. I thought you were installing.
Anyhow, what I know is that some python script is crashing, and your scripts seem to be named
shutil.py - perhaps shell utilities
timezone.py - obviously a pacman clone ;-)
anaconda/backend.py - Backend sounds like a sweepup script, and anaconda is the redhat/fedora installer.
It looks to me like a tidy up session after an install has gone belly up. Reboot the thing and see what you have got.
IIRC, grub is installed but set up as the last stage of the process. You can probably boot with the install cd, hit Ctrl_Alt_F2 or one of the others and you get a prompt. mount your root drive on /mnt, mount your boot drive on that and run chroot /mnt and edit your menu.lst (LST in smalls)
