I am trying kickstart for the first time, and am running into something I don't see described in the documentation.
Somewhere between me and my purchasing department and Dell, my order for 6 PE 1850s was changed from "no installed OS" to WIndows. So I received the boxes with Windows pre-installed.
I would like to delete the NTFS partition with Windows, but keep the Dell Utility partition on the first partition. In the documentation for kickstart, I see options for
deleting linux partitions deleting all partitions
but not one for deleting one or more specific partitions.
Correct. In this case, you can either delete by hand, or run a script in the %pre section of your kickstart file, e.g.
%pre parted rm 2
