Hi,
More often than not, when installing CentOS, I choose manual partitioning
and
then apply the KISS principle, with a very simple partitioning scheme that
looks more or less like this:
* /boot partition: 500 MB, ext2
* swap partition: equivalent to amount of RAM
* root partition: available space, ext4
Now when I do this, Anaconda insists on switching my swap and root
partitions,
so instead of this:
* /dev/sda1: boot partition
* /dev/sda2: swap partition
* /dev/sda3: root partition
... I get this:
* /dev/sda1: boot partition
* /dev/sda2: root partition
* /dev/sda3: swap partition
Up until now this hasn't bothered me much. But for my needs right now it
does,
because I need my root partition to be at the end of the disk, so it can
be
expanded later on.
Anyone knows how I can prevent Anaconda from switching my root and swap
partitions? What I'm doing right now is switching to a text console with
Ctrl-Alt-F5, manually partition using fdisk, switch back to Anaconda and
then
rescan the disk, but it's quite a PITA.
That's exactly what I wanted to suggest you :-)
I never found a better way...
I never have done that but is %pre script section not exactly the place
for that ?
