Hello Group, I am building a company application based on Centos 5.7 OS. The application was working earlier and creating right partitions both for hardware as well as VM. But since we introduced Centos 5.7 OS and start building application with 5.7 anaconda the hardware partitions are duplicate of VM partitions *while creating hardware partition my code looks like.* cat > /tmp/partmap.ks <<EOPM *clearpart --all --initlabel --drives=sda *part swap --fstype swap --asprimary --size=16000 part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=400 --asprimary --fsoptions=noatime,defaults part pv.01 --size=1 --grow volgroup jmpvgnocf pv.01 logvol / --fstype ext3 --name=lvroot --vgname=jmpvgnocf --size=1 --grow --fsoptions=noatime,defaults logvol swap --fstype swap --name=lvswap --vgname=jmpvgnocf --size=$swap_size EOPM LV Name always shows /dev/volGroup00/LogVol00. *my VM partition code looks like* cat > /tmp/partmap.ks <<EOOPM clearpart --all --initlabel #autopart changes behvior of autopart. to avoid version dependency #put specific partion configuration #autopart part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=100 part pv.2 --size=0 --grow --ondisk=sda volgroup VolGroup00 --pesize=32768 pv.2 logvol / --fstype ext3 --name=LogVol00 --vgname=VolGroup00 --size=1024 --grow logvol swap --fstype swap --name=LogVol01 --vgname=VolGroup00 --size=1000 --grow --maxsize=1984 EOOPM Could someone tell me what am I doing wrong. thanks in advance. nagrik
