Description Matt Domsch 2000-09-21 20:27:30 UTC 
Using Red Hat IA-64 09/21/00 CD

Specifying in a kickstart file --onpart without a --noformat:
zerombr yes
clearpart --all
part /boot/efi --size 100       --ondisk sda --type 6 --onpart sda1
part /         --size 512       --ondisk sda
part /usr      --size 3072      --ondisk sda
part swap      --size 512       --ondisk sda
part /tmp      --size 256       --ondisk sda
part /var      --size 256       --ondisk sda --grow

where sda1 is an existing partition, Disk Druid drops this exception/python
traceback message:
"-onpart specified for mount point /boot/efi on non-ext2 partition without
--dontformat".

--dontformat isn't correct.  It's --noformat.
