I realize this also wipes out the partition table, but I
was assuming
this was done before partitioning, so the install process
would write
the new partition table. But I get an error part way through the
install complaining the disk has no partitioning (which I
did confirm).


<partitioning config:type="list">
<drive>
<device>/dev/sda</device>
<initialize config:type="boolean">false</initialize>
<partitions config:type="list">


I use declarations like that for disk-partitionig (example from SLES9).
