Last modified: 2007-04-18 12:41:41 EDT
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1) Description of problem: My ks.cfg file does not have part information, thus making the installer bring up the partitioning window. When selecting autopartition, and ks.cfg has clearpart --all --initlabel, the next screen shows no partitions created with no mount points. If I leave out the clearpart --all --initlabel, I get partitions, but with no mount points. (TEXT mode, not gui) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use my ks.cfg 2. select autopartition 3. Whala Actual Results: I get partitions with no mount points, or I get no partitions at all. Expected Results: Autopartitioning to work, and have partitions and mount points Additional info:
There is no concept of autopartitioning in kickstart; autopartitioning requires an installclass, which kickstart is all on its own. So you either have to specify your own partitioning information or enter it manually.
