That is a good question. In my ks.cfg file, after language, network and keyboard, I have the partition info: # partitions zerombr yes #clearpart --all clearpart --linux part swap --size 512 part /boot --size 512 part /home --size 3000 part /multimedia --size 5000 part / --size 5000 --grow I believe that you could either put variables in for the size/partitions, or use if/then/else, looking for workstation/server and using the different partitioning schemes. Does this help?
