I don't think your problem is with clearpart, if you don't specify --ondisk for each partition entry, then it is going to look at all your drives to determine which ones have available space that partitions can be allocated to.
I do use --ondisk as below: clearpart --all --drives=hda part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=50 --ondisk=hda part / --fstype ext3 --size=4800 --ondisk=hda part swap --size=128 --grow --maxsize=256 --ondisk=hda Thanks. -- Ian Leonard eMail: ileonard@xxxxxxxxxxxx Phone: +44 (0)1865 765273 Please ignore spelling and punctuation - I did.
