I have 2 questions dealing with 2 different kickstart files. 1) my kickstart sections for RAID disk setup and kickstart reports it cannot find sda. Why is that. sda is there and works. clearpart --all --initlabel part raid.01 --asprimary --bytes-per-inode=4096 --fstype="raid" --onpart=sda1 --size=20000 part swap --asprimary --bytes-per-inode=4096 --fstype="swap" --onpart=sda2 --size=4000 part raid.02 --bytes-per-inode=4096 --fstype="raid" --grow --onpart=sda3 --size=1 part raid.03 --asprimary --bytes-per-inode=4096 --fstype="raid" --onpart=sdb1 -...

I'm ill, i'm german ... the script is looks ok, copy from a slim installation of anaconda. Insert only the "pre part" and part /boot --onpart=/dev/sda1 part / --onpart=/dev/sda2 part swap --onpart=/dev/sda3 As i wrote: Jump over to another console and the partitions are there.

...e data partitions should survive the install, i.e. they should not be formatted.

...my swap is being put on sda1 because for some reason that partition gets the lowest numeric value in the name (raid.008001) But I don't see why that is happening, nor am I sure how to tell anaconda that I want /boot on the first partition (other than doing it in %pre) I cannot specify the 'onpart=sda1' option because I use 'clearpart' in the script, and according to the docs: "If the clearpart command is used, then the --onpart command cannot be used on a logical partition."

I want to replace an existing 32bit with a 64bit installation (Centos 5). There's an existing LVM with lots of partitions. Most are used for Xen guests. The system itself uses only one of them plus a separate /boot partition that is not on LVM. What's the best course of action here? Should I do the reinstall with kickstart or better manually and reuse the existing filesystem? As I

I'll be setting up a vSphere 4 environment hosting CentOS 5.4 on Netapp FAS and was curious how you guys are handling the automation of partition alignment within your linux guests. I'd like to use cobbler for dynamically creating kickstart scripts and wasn't sure if I could align my disk during install some how. Are there kickstart arguments to force the alignment on a 4k boundary?
