Dynamic allocation of swap not working.

[Abhijit Das]

I tried every possible way … still same error, 

Here is my command section. 

clearpart --linux
zerombr

part /boot/efi --fstype=efi --grow --maxsize=200 --size=20
part /boot --fstype=ext4 --size=500
part pv.008002 --grow --size=1

%include /tmp/disk_partition.cfg




Here is my complete %pre section now.

%pre
mem=`cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemTotal: | sed 's/^.*MemTotal: \(.*\)kB*$/\1/'`
mem_mb=`expr $mem / 1024`

cat << EOF > /tmp/disk_partition.cfg
volgroup VolGroup00 --pesize=4096 pv.008002
logvol / --fstype=ext4 --name=lv_root --vgname=VolGroup00 --grow --size=1024
logvol swap --name=lv_swap --vgname=VolGroup00 –-size=$mem_mb
EOF

sleep 5

exec < /dev/tty6 > /dev/tty6 2> /dev/tty6
chvt 6

APIKEY=xxxx
HOSTNAME=$(hostname)
curl -s -o /tmp/deploytoken --data "private_token=${APIKEY}&hostname=${HOSTNAME}&message=preinstall_start" https://<internal_URL>

It throws an error that /tmp/swap_partition is not found. Please advise how should i proceed.
