Hi,
I'm trying to use the partition scheme that used for partitioning SLES8 and SLES9 systems.
The minimal autoinst.xml snippet looks like
<partitioning config:type="list">
<drive>
<initialize config:type="boolean">true</initialize>
<partitions config:type="list">
<partition>
<filesystem config:type="symbol">VAR_boot_filesystem</filesystem>
<format config:type="boolean">true</format>
<mount>/boot</mount>
131
1
<size>96M</size>
</partition>
<partition>
<filesystem config:type="symbol">swap</filesystem>
<format config:type="boolean">true</format>
<mount>swap</mount>
130
5
<size>8192M</size>
</partition>
<partition>
<filesystem config:type="symbol">ext3</filesystem>
<format config:type="boolean">true</format>
<mount>/</mount>
131
2
<size>max</size>
</partition>
</partitions>
<use>all</use>
</drive>
What I expect is:
1st primary 96M /boot
2nd primary some 130G /
1st logical 6G swap
What I get is:
/ # fdisk -l
Disk /dev/cciss/c0d0: 146.8 GB, 146807930880 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 17848 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/cciss/c0d0p1 1 13 104391 83 Linux
/dev/cciss/c0d0p2 14 17848 143259637+ f W95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/cciss/c0d0p5 14 16803 134865643+ 83 Linux
/dev/cciss/c0d0p6 16804 17848 8393931 82 Linux swap / Solaris
BTW. If I do not specify partition_id and partition_nr for swap then root get's first logical partion and swap second one.
Is there any chance to force / to be a primary partition w/o using part.info? http://www.suse.de/~ug/autoyast_doc/CreateProfile.Partitioning.html#id252979... sugests that my snippet should do what I want...
