You can specify what drive partitions are made on using the "--ondisk
<device name>" option.  See below:

part /boot --fstype ext3 --size 100 --asprimary --ondisk cciss/c0d0 
part swap --size 24000 --asprimary --ondisk cciss/c0d0 
part / --fstype ext3 --size 20000 --asprimary --ondisk cciss/c0d0 

Note that I'm using HP RAID cards, so I get strange device names.  It
would probably be something like "--ondisk sda" in most cases.

Subject: 1st disk only automated install

Hi All,

I have an environment where I have a number of machines that are 
pata/sata/ide.  That is to say, each of these machines have 2 drives 
installed.  These drives could be a pair pata or sata or ide drives in
each 
box.

My question is; is there a way, using kickstart to confine the install
to only 
the normal boot drive and not have the install put any filesystems on
the 
other drive?

I have found that kickstart is using both drives on the install where I
only 
really want one disk to have the whole installed OS on it leaving the
other 
untouched.  I guess the kicker would be that I also need to have this
same 
behaviour on the rest of my boxes which could be pata/sata/ide.

Any help on this would be appreciated, please.

Thank you,

Phil
