Did you check the partinfo file to see if the variables are correctly replaced?
In Python,Perl or Shell? I'm searching how to wipe all drives with parted or fdisk.
In an external shell script. I just do a simple dd (I still use msdos partitioing): dd if=/dev/zero of=$DEVICE bs=512 count=1 >/dev/null 2>&1 Then I use sfdisk with values calculated for the correct stripe size depending on the server RAID. Then I format with a stripe-width and optionally -m 0. I only let the ks do the mounting. Disclaimer: did not test with CentOS 6 yet...
clearpart --all --initlabel
needed since you already put one in your partinfo file?
