Hi, all -- ...and then Taylor, ForrestX said... % ... % # 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 have a somewhat related question... I'd like to specify certain partitions (root, var, swap) and then have one more that uses whatever is left. [Actually, I think it would be great to have Erik's script that parses disk size and decideds based on that, since I come from a Sun JumpStart environment and find kickstart, cool though it may be, somewhat limiting.] I have't found the switch for "free" or "freehog" or "the rest" or whatever. Is there one? Speaking of which, I now recall a second question. I'd like for my partition table to lay out as sda1 - swap sda2 - root sda3 - var sda4 - extended partition containing sda5 - /drv1 (my "the rest" slice) but I seem to always end up with swap down in the middle of the disk somewhere and more extended partitions than I expect. Can I be more specific in my layout?
