Given what you're doing, why specify the partitions at all, just set whole_disk to 'true' and let the installer create the layout you want of the whole disk being used by the root pool. > I also tried creating a partition with the full size of the disk, but I > get the following error: > SelectionError: Could not determine the available size in pool 'rpool'. It would be useful to see the install_log file for this, but it's most likely because you've not allocated any partitions or slices to the root pool. Try changing the line to be: <partition action="create" name="1" part_type="191" in_zpool="rpool"/> > > I'd appreciate if someone could suggest a working manifest that I could > use in this case? Would be easier with the full install_log - but probably best to not send to this list, just send to me.
