Jeff, this did not work for me. This is the resulting anaconda kickstart
config as saved during installation:
#part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=102
#part / --fstype ext3 --size=20480
#part swap --size=10240
#part pv.100000 --noformat --size=1 --grow --ondisk=sdb
#volgroup vol0 --pesize=32768 pv.100000
I'm also using lvcreate -l 100%FREE in %post, but the result is still 8TB
only ("Total free space is ... 1.1TiB").
# gdisk -l /dev/sdb
