You can specify what drive partitions are made on using the "--ondisk
<device name>" option. See below:
part /boot --fstype ext3 --size 100 --asprimary --ondisk cciss/c0d0
part swap --size 24000 --asprimary --ondisk cciss/c0d0
part / --fstype ext3 --size 20000 --asprimary --ondisk cciss/c0d0
Note that I'm using HP RAID cards, so I get strange device names. It
would probably be something like "--ondisk sda" in most cases.

Subject: 1st disk only automated install
Hi All,
I have an environment where I have a number of machines that are
pata/sata/ide. That is to say, each of these machines have 2 drives
installed. These drives could be a pair pata or sata or ide drives in
each
box.
My question is; is there a way, using kickstart to confine the install
to only
the normal boot drive and not have the install put any filesystems on
the
other drive?
I have found that kickstart is using both drives on the install where I
only
really want one disk to have the whole installed OS on it leaving the
other
untouched. I guess the kicker would be that I also need to have this
same
behaviour on the rest of my boxes which could be pata/sata/ide.
Any help on this would be appreciated, please.
Thank you,
Phil
