autopartkit with preseed
I'm trying to get d-i working with a preseed file. I hard-coded the
partition layout in the preseed; here are the partman questions I've set:
d-i partman-auto/disk string /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc
d-i partman-auto/expert_recipe string isis-partitioning :: 1023 100 1024 linux-swap $primary{ } method{ swap } format{ } . 399 400 400 ext3 $primary{ } $bootable{ } method{ format } format{ } use_filesystem{ } filesystem{ ext3 } mountpoint{ / } . 1199 1200 1200 ext3 method{ format } format{ } use_filesystem{ } filesystem{ ext3 } mountpoint{ /usr } . 999 1000 1000 ext3 method{ format } format{ } use_filesystem{ } filesystem{ ext3 } mountpoint{ /tmp } . 249 250 250 ext3 method{ format } format{ } use_filesystem{ } filesystem{ ext3 } mountpoint{ /home } . 999 1000 500000 ext3 method{ format } format{ } use_filesystem{ } filesystem{ ext3 } mountpoint{ /var } .
d-i partman/choose_partition select Finish partitioning and write changes to disk
d-i partman/confirm boolean true
First, I'm prompted about whether I want to really use the automatic
partitioning tool, to which I answer yes. autopartkit then complains that:
An error occured during the previous operation
You may be able to continue. Here is some more information:
Unable to find 262144 blocks of free space requested by lv_root on any disk.
/var/log/syslog is up at http://horde.net/~jwm/debian/syslog.
I previously (a little while before sarge released) had the same preseed
file working with the same d-i netboot image, but I haven't had any time to
finish my preseed until now. Is there something I need to update based on
later changes?
thanks,
john
