On a 4G drive the partitions defined in the ks.cfg on the boot floppy are
as such;
clearpart --all
part / --size 150
part /var --size 80 --grow --maxsize 100
part /usr --size 700 --grow --maxsize 800
part swap --size 128 --grow --maxsize 200
part /tmp --size 100 --grow

What I get is;
Filesystem           1k-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda5               155545     43856    103659  30% /
/dev/sda7               388693        32    368582   0% /tmp
/dev/sda1              2727572    645024   1943992  25% /usr
/dev/sda8               326682      9582    300234   3% /var

Filename                        Type            Size    Used    Priority
/dev/sda6                       partition       522072  0       -1

The / partition is correct, however everything else is skewed slightly. Not
that it seemed to choose sizes correctly, I just don't understand why it
didn't stop with a 100M /var, an 800M /usr, a 200M swap and give the rest
to /tmp.

Is there an explination behind this? Below is the ks.cfg in its entirety.

Thanks for the help,

Don
