Hi: I've a problem with a unattended hd-media installation preseeding. The preseed that I use works fine for net or CD installations (always is used in single-disk systems), and it takes the existing disk to part.
Since in hd-media installation exist other disk, the installation asks for the disk to part. Using the name of the disk (sda for example) is not a good solution since those names are dependant of driver loading order. ¿Is any way to select the larger disk (or other similar solution), or i must "asume" the driver loading order? Thanks in advance: Jon PD; I've readed the manual, and the partman-auto-recipe and I couldn't find anything in this way. This is the partman part of the preseed: ****************************************************************************************** d-i partman-auto/init_automatically_partition \ select Guided - use entire disk # For example, to use the first SCSI/SATA hard disk: # d-i partman-auto/disk string /dev/hda # d-i partman-auto/disk string /dev/hdb # d-i partman-auto/disk string /dev/sda # d-i partman-auto/disk string /deb/sdb # Note: If you want to use whatever disk is available, no matter # what its device name, comment the line above out.
