So I'm trying to edit a (fully-automated) kickstart file that I've used to set up RHEL machines with no problems in the past. The problem is that it makes some assumptions about how big the drive is supposed to be, and though drive space is cheap, my laptop apparently doesn't have enough and I'd like to have this accessible now as a VM running for training purposes. So long story short, I'm hoping for a little help in understanding the following part from the %pre section of the ks, which I believe to be the culprit: cat > /tmp/partitioning <<EOF zerombr yes clearpart --all part /boot --start 1 --end 16 --ondisk sda part /var/ftp/pub --start 17 --end 5017 --ondisk sda part pv.1 --size=27648 --ondisk=sda volgroup vg0 --pesize=32768 pv.1 logvol / --fstype ext3 --name=lv.root --vgname=vg0 --size=20480 logvol swap --fstype swap --name=lv.swap --vgname=vg0 --recommended logvol /tmp --fstype ext3 --name=lv.tmp --vgname=vg0 --size=1024 --grow --maxsize=2048 logvol /var --fstype ext3 --name=lv.var --vgname=vg0 --size=2048 --grow --maxsize=2048 logvol /home --fstype ext3 --name=lv.home --vgname=vg0 --size=512 --grow --maxsize=1024 EOF This of course is included with an '%include /tmp/partitioning' line at the beginning of the ks. Parsing through this, I would expect the part "pv.1 --size=27648" line to create a 27GB partition and it seems that as long as the drive has more than that, this whole process should be successful, but not so. Which leaves me confused, SOOO I'm searching elsewhere and starting to play with this, but I thought I'd through out a line in the meantime. :) Thanks to anyone who has some insight! -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
