Basically, something like: %pre #! /bin/sh a=`list-harddrives` d1_name=`echo $a | awk '{ print $1 }'` d1_size=`echo $a | awk '{ print $2 }' | cut -f1 -d'.'` d2_name=`echo $a | awk '{ print $3 }'` d2_size=`echo $a | awk '{ print $4 }' | cut -f1 -d'.'` set $(echo $a) numd=$(($#/2)); Then based on number of drives detected and drive sizes I simply build /tmp/partinfo (there's "%include /tmp/partinfo" in main kickstart file). If above detects single drive, it outputs directives to install onto it directly. If above detects two drives of same size, it outputs directives to build "mirrored" configuration. I'm also adjusting partition sizes based on detected drive size. Simplified (the actuall script is much longer), it looks something like this: if [ "$numd" -eq 2 -a "$d1_size" -eq "$d2_size" ] then echo "Building mirrors" echo "clearpart --initlabel --drives=$d1_name,$d2_name part raid.01 --size $boot --ondisk $d1_name --asprimary part raid.02 --size $boot --ondisk $d2_name --asprimary part raid.11 --size 1 --grow --ondisk $d1_name --asprimary part raid.12 --size 1 --grow --ondisk $d2_name --asprimary raid /boot --level 1 --device md0 raid.01 raid.02 raid pv.00 --level 1 --device md1 raid.11 raid.12 ... and so on ... " > /tmp/partinfo else echo "Installing on signle disk" echo "clearpart --initlabel --drives=$d1_name part /boot --size $boot --ondisk $d1_name --asprimary part pv.00 --size 1 --grow --ondisk $d1_name --asprimary ... and so on ... " > /tmp/partinfo fi Of course, you need to be carefull not to use this if machine has drives with data that you want to preserve ;-) -- See Ya' later, alligator! http://www.8-P.ca/
