I NOTICED THE COPIED IN PORTION OF AN EXCEL SHEET CAN'T BE SEEN IN THE NOTE
I SENT YESTERDAY.  SORRY.  I HAVE FORWARDED THE NOTE AGAIN WITH THE
APPROPRIATE DATA JUST TYPED IN.


Hey All,

I am doing an NFS kickstart and seem to be having some problems with my
partitioning.   I pasted a portion of my ks.cfg file below.

zerombr yes
clearpart --all
part /boot --size 16
part swap --size 512
part / --size 250
part /usr --size 1000 --grow --maxsize 2000
part /var --size 1000 --grow --maxsize 2000
part /usr/local --size 1000 --grow --maxsize 2000
part /home --size 1000 --grow
install

I was under the impression that remaining space would be divided equally
between the 3 partitions with the max 2000 command and then the --grow
command  would allocate all the remaining space to /home .  Yet if you look
at the results below of the df -h command, you will see that my hard drives
have unallocated space ( I didn't know how to see what the amount of swap
space is, but I only have it set at 512).  Did I do something wrong or am I
not understanding the grow and max commands incorrectly?  Thanks in
advance!

The first column of numbers are the results from a 10G drive and the 2nd
column is a 40G drive.
/boot          15M  17M
/         154M 153M
/usr      677M 676M
/var      1.7G 1.6G
/usr/local     1.7G 1.7G
/home          1.9G      8.5G
