  • 1.  Kickstart file

    hi all,
    a odd thing Happens when i install my linux mahine (IBM) by altiris
    The kickstart file change the lines order and by doing so, the Installation fails.

    for example my soure file have the lines

    "clearpart --all
    part pv.01 --size 3000
    volgroup myvg pv.01
    logvol / --vgname=myvg --size=2000 --name=rootvol"


    after runing  the job the Installation fails (using IBM scripts and IBM PXE)
    i check the kickstart file of the install in /tmp/ks.cfg (by switching  alt+F3)
    and the file look like this:

    "clearpart --all
    part pv.01 --size 3000
    logvol / --vgname=myvg --size=2000 --name=rootvol
    volgroup myvg pv.01"


    have anyone know why it happens?
    is it's because the IBM scripts?

    by the way this file work fine without altiris.
    thanks.
