Here is the simple test I do:
#
# Determine primary drive type (IDE or SATA/SCSI)
#
DRIVE=''
parted -s /dev/hda > /dev/null 2>&1
if [ "$?" = 0 ]
then
DRIVE=hda
else
parted -s /dev/sda > /dev/null 2>&1
if [ "$?" = 0 ]
then
DRIVE=sda
fi
fi
#
# Then you can just configure your drives based on matching the type
#
if [ "$DRIVE" = "hda" ]
then
# echo your desired IDE partitioning > /tmp/part-include
else
# echo your desired SATA/SCSI partitioning > /tmp/part-include
fi
#
# Then in the main body of the kickstart config before the
# %pre, you would specify an include where the partitioning
# normally would be:
#
%include /tmp/part-include

I deploy kickstarts to a number of different configurations. The servers
have IDE, SAS, or SCSI drives. My partitioning is always the same, but
if it's an IDE server, I do a software raid1. The SCSI & SAS servers
have hardware raid1. Currently I manage multiple configs to make this
happen. I'd like to start using list-harddrives in %pre, and generate
the partition tables from that. It's really simple, if sd = yes, then
partition normally. hd = yes then partition with raid config.
I know this has been covered before, and I have searched and found some
examples, but not exactly what I'm looking for. I am not a programmer,
so if someone could help me with the logic here, that would be sweet.
Thanks!
