Hello,

I'm trying to let kickstart partition two ide disks. Here's an extract of 
the kickstart file:

#Disk partitioning information:
clearpart --initlabel --drives hda hdb
part   /boot        --ondisk hda --fstype ext2   --size     128 
--asprimary
part   pv.01        --ondisk hda                 --size       1 --grow
part   /usr2        --ondisk hdb --fstype ext3   --size       1 
--asprimary --grow
volgroup vg00 pv.01
logvol /afs_cache   --vgname vg00 --fstype ext3   --size    1024 --name 
afs_cach
e
logvol swap         --vgname vg00                  --size    1024 --name 
swap
logvol /            --vgname vg00 --fstype ext3   --size    8192 --name 
root
logvol /usr1        --vgname vg00 --fstype ext3   --size       1 --name 
usr1 --grow

This doesn't work! The anaconda installer complains with:

Error partitioning
Could not allocate requested partition:
Partioning failed. Could not allocate partitions as primary partition.
Press 'OK' to reboot your system

After removing the hdb entries (/usr2 partition and in clearpart) 
everything works fine. But actually I want to have both disks 
configured...

What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks in advance
Andreas
