Also, don't use clearpart. You should be able to do: part /boot --onpart hda1 part swap --onpart hda2 part /usr --onpart hda5 part /usr/local --onpart hda6 etc. I know that several people have used the %pre section to partition their disk before the installation starts, and then use --onpart to put the partitions in place, so I think that the above will work. Forrest Forrest, The current system does have pre-existing partitions so I tried as you suggested above and received errors. I saved them to a disk and attached the file called anacdump.txt below. What do I do if I want to wipe out everything (whether it be windows or existing linux partitions) and repartition the drive?
