Hello Yannik,

Maybe you can try this:
"bootloader  --location=mbr --driveorder=sda"
In your template quattor you can do that adding:
variable AII_OSINSTALL_OPTION_BOOTLOADER = "mbr --driveorder=sda";

Objet : PXE non interactive boot prompt for GPT partition table

Hi,

I'm installing my machines through PXE (in fact using Quattor).

I've a new storage machine, and when I stated the installation I had the
suprise to see it hang somewhere. So I went to the machine room, plugged
a screen and keyboard and read (something like) "/de/sdb has some GPT
table, I cant do much with it unless you reformat it. Do it [Yes] [Ignore]".

Well, if Anaconda would have carefully read its config file, it would
have seen that the only partitions I'm dealing with are on /dev/sda (the
rest is storage and Anaconda should keep its hands out of it).

Is there a way to say that in the kickstart file so that I'm not
prompted for this at install?

Thanks for any help,

	Yannick
