RE: part-include

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have successfully done this with RHEL 2.1, 3 and 4.

The %include is actually the second to last item in my config section,
just before reboot:

%include /tmp/partinfo
reboot

And this is in my pre:

# Determine how many drives we have
set $(list-harddrives)
let numd=$#/2
d1=$1
d2=$3

if [ $numd -ge 2 ] ; then
cat << EOF >> /tmp/partinfo
part pv.01 --size=1 --grow --fstype=ext3 --ondisk=$d1
volgroup volgrp01 pv.01
part pv.02 --size=1 --grow --fstype=ext3 --ondisk=$d2
volgroup volgrp02 pv.02
part / --fstype ext3 --size=10240 --ondisk=$d1
logvol /var --vgname=volgrp01 --size=8192 --name=var
part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=256 --ondisk=$d1
logvol /home --vgname=volgrp02 --size=4096 --name=home
logvol /tmp --vgname=volgrp01 --size=2048 --name=tmp
part swap --recommended --ondisk=$d1
EOF

else

cat << EOF >> /tmp/partinfo
part pv.01 --size=1 --grow --fstype=ext3 --ondisk=$d1
volgroup volgrp01 pv.01
part / --fstype ext3 --size=10240 --ondisk=$d1
logvol /var --vgname=volgrp01 --size=8192 --name=var
part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=256 --ondisk=$d1
logvol /home --vgname=volgrp01 --size=4096 --name=home
logvol /tmp --vgname=volgrp01 --size=2048 --name=tmp
part swap --recommended --ondisk=$d1
EOF

I've used %include for partitioning without any problems with RHEL ES 4
by putting the partition %include directive between the "mouse" and
"bootloader" options. (before the %pre) and then doing this in the %pre:

cat > /tmp/include << EOF
zerombr yes
clearpart --all
partition /boot --fstype=ext3 --size=200 partition swap --size=2000
partition pv.01 --size=1000 --grow volgroup myvg pv.01 logvol /
--vgname=myvg --name=rootvol --size=1000 --grow logvol /tmp
--vgname=myvg --name=tmp --size=1024 EOF
