I looked at my notes (don't trust my memory) and saw

docs/disk:parted -s /dev/sda mkpart primary 1MB 512MB docs/disk:parted -s /dev/sda mkpart primary 512MB 2560MB docs/disk:parted -s /dev/sda mkpart primary 2560MB 100% docs/gentoo:parted -s /dev/vda mkpart primary 1MB 512MB docs/gentoo:parted -s /dev/vda mkpart primary 512MB 2560MB docs/gentoo:parted -s /dev/vda mkpart primary 2560MB 100%

So, either an absolute value or a percentage of the remaining disk. I never did the plus thingie then.

I swear I've done this dozens of times: a new server, going to install (CentOS 7, in this case), and I manually partition the disk before the install using parted, and do mkpart pri 0.0GB +1.0GB Except now it appears to be saying it doesn't like the +1.0GB, I *think* it's the plus sign.
