@ Arun - I believe it shouldn’t matter where the %pre is located. However, i have tried and the same error.
@ Chris - I appended —log /tmp/ks-pre.log to %pre but the log file is blank. /ks/anaconda.log tells me that %pre is executed but not ..
Here i have modified %pre
%pre --log=/tmp/pre-log
#!/bin/bash

Trying to dynamically allocate swap
logvol / --fstype=ext4 --name=lv_root --vgname=VolGroup00 --grow --size=1024
%include /tmp/swap_partition
%pre
#!/bin/bash
mem=`cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemTotal: | sed 's/^.*MemTotal: \(.*\)kB*$/\1/'`
mem_mb=`expr $mem / 1024`
echo "logvol swap --name=lv_swap --vgname=VolGroup00 –-size=$mem_mb" > /tmp/swap_partition
It throws an error that /tmp/swap_partition is not found. Please advise how should i proceed.

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

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

Try moving the %include /tmp/disk_partition.cfg below the %pre section in
your kickstart file

What OS and version? Are there any other errors in your
/tmp/anaconda.log or on tty1?
