Hi,

   I am trying to test using Kickstart with RedHat 7.1 on a Compaq system
with a SMART RAID controller (cpqarray). I am trying unsuccessfully to get
kickstart to work with this partition config:

part / --size 250 --asprimary --ondisk ida/c0d0
part /usr --size 3500 --ondisk ida/c0d0
part swap --size 1500 --ondisk ida/c0d0
part /var --size 300 --ondisk ida/c0d0
part /tmp --size 200 --ondisk ida/c0d0
 
But this works:

part / --size 250 --asprimary 
part /usr --size 3500 
part swap --size 1500 
part /var --size 300 
part /tmp --size 200
 
This disk is big enough (6GB) and previously has been installed manually
with the same configuration. I need to use the '--ondisk' option because
otherwise the partitions are created on c0d2, which is not what I need.
 
I've seen a workaround of creating partions 1st in the %pre stage and then
using '--onpart', but then I get to script fdisk, which I shouldn't need to
do :) 

I am also wondering if I will see the same issue on the the "cciss"
controllers, and if so, is there a fix for those?
  
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Kevin
