RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Brian Smith 2019-02-07 22:57:29 UTC

Description of problem:
When created images with Composer, it doesn't look like it is currently possible to specify custom partitioning (for example, create separate filesystem for /home in the image)



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):  RHEL 8 Beta, snapshot 3


How reproducible: Every time


Steps to Reproduce:
Try to create image with custom partitioning


Additional info:
Request is from a customer.

Comment 1 Brian Lane 2019-02-08 00:14:53 UTC

This is not a feature we are going to provide in lorax-composer. If someone needs custom partitioning they can use the example kickstarts with livemedia-creator to create their custom image.
