I've got my kickstart for rhel5 xen guests defined with the following
disk/partition info:
bootloader --location=mbr --driveorder=xvda --append="console=xvc0"
clearpart --all --drives=xvda
part swap --fstype swap --size 512 --ondisk=xvda
part / --fstype ext3 --ondisk=xvda --size=1 --grow
When I run my koan command and connect to the xm console, the install
works perfectly, with one hitch: I get prompted at the start of
anaconda, with ...
Welcome to Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server
+-----------------+ Warning +-----------------+
| |
| The partition table on device xvda was |
| unreadable. To create new partitions it |
| must be initialized, causing the loss of |
| ALL DATA on this drive. |
| |
| This operation will override any previous |
| installation choices about which drives |
| to ignore. |
| |
| Would you like to initialize this drive, |
| erasing ALL DATA? |

| +-----+ +----+ |
| | Yes | | No | |
| +-----+ +----+ |

+---------------------------------------------+
<Tab>/<Alt-Tab> between elements | <Space> selects | <F12>
next screen
... and once I click "Yes", the rest of the install runs completely
automated without interaction. When I build physical systems, via a
similar (but obviously, not identical) kickstart, I don't have to
interact with the installer at all. Anything obvious I'm doing wrong
to cause that prompt to get thrown up?
Thanks,
