From: "Shabazian, Chip" <Chip Shabazian bankofamerica com> Howdy, As I mentioned a while back, I'm doing a "Kickstart Tips and Tricks" seminar at Linuxworld this summer, and I need to finish (ok, START and finish) my presentation this weekend. I've gotten a few good tips from you all, so this is my final call for help:

* What else should I be asking for and presenting
Hi Chip,One aspect of kickstart that I've not been able to solve satisfactorily is to have the process detect existing LVM partitions, retaining all of them and reformatting some of them. I had to resort to using a ks.cfg file which had no partitioning information in it at all, which allowed anaconda to drop out to disk druid. I could then tell it what I wanted and the install then carried on.
If you have a solution to this which would allow a 100% unattanded install, I for one would appreciate it.
