Dermot,
Thank you for the answer. The slices within the partition works. I
should have read the 'flagdays' better.
However, for x86, the partitions, if I want to make more partitions,
will it be possible to specify the percentage of the disk I want for
the partitions?
No, sorry. Partition size should be specified in
a <size> sub-element, just like slice size (ie not
as an attribute, "..size=50%").
The allowed units are all absolutes: b (byte), s,
secs (sectors), k, kb, m, mb, g, gb, t, tb, p, pb,
e, eb, z, zb.
If size is omitted for a partition or slice, it uses the
size of it parent (partition or disk).
- Dermot
Something like:
<target>
<disk whole_disk="true">
<disk_keyword key="boot_disk"/>
<partition name="1" action="create" size=50%>
<slice name="6" action="create" force="true">
<size val="100mb"/>
</slice>
<slice name="7" action="create" force="true">
<size val="100mb"/>
</slice>
<slice name="0" action="create" force="true">
</slice>
</partition>
<partition name="2" action="create" size=50%>
</disk>
</target>

Paul,
Your manifest defines a partition and 3 slices
at the same level under the disk, which is incorrect.
You should either have slices within the partition (x86)
or slices only (sparc). I would expect this to be reported
as an error, and it may be a bug that it is not.

All,
We run in some very strange issues with b175 when creating extra
slices. It doesn't matter, x86 or sparc. Worked in b151a (well not
with this manifest of course, but the idea is the same)
my ai_manifest.xml part for the the target:
<target>
<disk whole_disk="true">
<disk_keyword key="boot_disk"/>
<partition name="1" action="create"/>
<slice name="6" action="create" force="true">
<size val="100mb"/>
</slice>
<slice name="7" action="create" force="true">
<size val="100mb"/>
</slice>
<slice name="0" action="create" force="true">
<size val="100gb"/>
</slice>
</disk>
</target>
