Im doing some development work with Linux RHEL3 AS on a PPC p-series, trying to automate the install on linux process by netbooting from a server and then having kickstart answer the rest of the questions During a manual install, Anaconda will allow you to erase the entire patition during the autopartition and then create the PPC Prep Boot and other partition as needed for the PPC setup. However the option to create a PPC Prep Boot doesnt appear in the customization guide i found for RH version 9. Can KickStart create a PPC PReP Boot? If so then what is the 'Part' string look like? Since they now use --fstype instead of --type the docs limits it to 4 choices (ext2, ext3 swap, vfat). Also the kickstart configurtor doest allow for a PPC Prep Boot partition either. Are there more Undocumented chooses? What is Spirit? When I asked my 87 year old Grandmother how she was feeling one day, she quickly replied "I feel like a 16 year old trapped in an old body". -Wilma Cinadr David Edens iSeries WCS e-Business Solutions Test Direct line 507-253-2904 Tie line 553-2904 Fax 507-253-0335 david_edens@xxxxxxxxxx
