Does anyone know how anaconda partitioning enumerates disk partitions when specified in kickstart? I quickly browsed through the anaconda installer source on github but didn't see the relevant bits. I'm using the centOS 6.10 anaconda installer. Somehow I am ending up with my swap partition on sda1, /boot on sda2, and root on sda3. for $REASONS I want /boot to be the partition #1 (sda1)

Thanks again!

I am asking this here, that although a kickstart question, may have something to do with the Centos install? I took my Anaconda-ks.cfg from my system, turned it into a ks.cfg and did the install. Everything SEEMS ok, but why? First the partitioning information: ks.cfg supplied: clearpart --all --drives=hda part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=100 --ondisk=hda part / --fstype ext3 --start=14

I did a quick search through the archive and couldn't find anything that mapped to my need, so I figured I should ping the community and see if anyone has the requisite knowledge and could point me in the right direction. *Succinct Version* Is there a way to, using updates.img, monkey patching or swapping in a newer Anaconda (>= 16) to force all disks to have gpt labels and not just

Has anybody encountered this problem? I have a box that has FC2 installed. I wanted to trash the FC2 installation and install CentOS 4. I have a pxeboot/dhcp/kickstart environment and so I tried automatic disk partitioning (clear all partitions and then create new ones), manual disk partitioning but everything else is automated and finally, zero automation, just a manual installation through

You'd need to allow some more time to dig into the logs. I'll try to get back on this by Monday.

I am building a latest CentOS5 and every newest stuff is ready. All are in directory "/linux/CentOS/5-respin/os/x86_64". My OS is CentOS5 too. I want to add some other pictures during installation process, so anaconda adjustment is needed. When I run command "anaconda --test --method=http://192.168.0.3/linux/CentOS/5-respin/os/x86_64", a error message followed: Traceback (most
