Description rmharwood 2000-11-02 16:29:13 UTC 
Inside a kickstart config file, under the "part" section, the "--ondisk"
option does not seem to work with hardware RAID logical volumes, namely
/dev/ida/c?d? (this is on a Compaq DL380).

For example, I'd like to run with the following kickstart config:

	part / --size 2048 --ondisk ida/c0d0
	part /var --size 1024 --ondisk ida/c0d0
	part swap --size 384 --ondisk ida/c0d0
	part /usr/local --size 1024 --grow  --ondisk ida/c0d0
	part /data --size 2048 --grow --ondisk ida/c0d1

but this does not work. Instead of an automatic installation, the config
drops into the diskdruid screen for partitioning. If the "--ondisk" options
are left off then partitioning does occur, but not with the desired
physical layout.

I've tried replacing ida/c0d0 with /dev/ida/c0d0 and it makes no
difference.
