Assigning machinename to volumegroup

[Gerrard Geldenhuis]

Hi 

I am trying to give my volume group a more specific name in the
following way:

 

install
text
network --bootproto dhcp
url --url http://satellite.example.com/ty/rAhbfOeG
lang en_GB
langsupport --default en_GB en_GB
keyboard uk
mouse none
device scsi cciss
zerombr yes
clearpart --all
bootloader --location mbr
timezone --utc Europe/London
auth --enablemd5 --enableshadow
selinux --disabled
reboot
firewall --disabled
skipx
 
%packages --resolvedeps
 
-telnet
ntp
-bluez-utils
-anacron
@ Core
-bluez-gnome
 
%pre
HOSTNAME=$(grep HOSTNAME /tmp/netinfo|cut -d= -f2|cut -d. -f1)
vgn=vg-$HOSTNAME
 
cat << EOF > /tmp/partinfo
partition /boot --fstype=ext3 --size=200
partition pv.01 --size=1000 --grow
partition swap --size=1000   --maxsize=2000
 
volgroup $vgn pv.01
 
logvol /        --vgname=$vgn --name=rootvol --size=5120
logvol /home    --vgname=$vgn --name=homevol --size=1024
logvol /tmp     --vgname=$vgn --name=tmpvol  --size=1024
logvol /var     --vgname=$vgn --name=varvol  --size=1536
logvol /var/log --vgname=$vgn --name=logvol  --size=30720
logvol /var/tmp --vgname=$vgn --name=vartmpvol --size=1024
 
EOF
 

However, I am still getting prompted for the partitioning details. The
script generates the file and the contents looks fine.

 

I am not sure what I am doing wrong. 

 

I am using Satellite 5.0. I have removed the partitioning details from
the satellite interface and added it in the pre-script. I assumed that
anakonda would then as option B look into /tmp/partinfo, but that does
not seem to be the case.

 

Any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated.

 

Regards
