Re: [CentOS] Kickstart and nvme0n1

How do you tell kickstart to use the first available disk? No matter if it is called sda or nvme0n1?

e.g. part /boot --fstype="xfs" --ondisk=sda --size=1000

I've never tried it, but the Redhat kickstart docs mention the 'part' option '--onbiosdisk':

--onbiosdisk - Forces the partition to be created on a particular disk as discovered by the BIOS.

The Redhat kickstart docs don't give any clues as to what the argument(s) should be - but a quick google gives:

So, maybe '--onbiosdisk=80' _might_ do what you need ?
