Hi

I have a problem with the grub installation in the post of the kickstart
installation.

In the Kickstart File i say the following:
clearpart: --drives cciss/c0d0 --all
bootloader: --location mbr


Because i have 16 fibre channel storage paths, grub installs the bootloader
on (hd16,0) instead of the drive cciss/c0d0 (hd0,0).
How can I tell to install grub on (hd0,0) staticly?

Thanks!
Dominik

AFAIK there is no way to specify an arbitrary disk to install grub to in Kickstart. I haven't tried this, but perhaps you can use the --driveorder option to get it sorted out. See:

http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4-Manual/sysadmin-guide/s1-kickstart2-options.html

Beyond that, I'd try --location partition (to install on first sector of /boot partition) or if that doesn't work set it to none and do the grub installation by hand during the post install script. It wouldn't be pretty, but it'd work.
