I've started using the disk-by-id option in my kickstarts to target
specific disks in disk/fs related directives.  A tip I got from Nico who
suggested I use the %pre section to configure the disks exactly the way
I want to.  Works really well.  My %pre even contains commands to reset
the LVM on re-installs.

Many thanks, Nico!
