Hey Denny,

Type 4 is 16-bit FAT (up to 32M), I see there's some Microsoft partitions. Is the first partition perhaps an MBR that was installed along some previous Windows installation? I only ever see it when I installed Windows on my machine prior to Linux. Maybe you could do the following:

disk_config disk1 disklabel:gpt-bios bootable:1 fstabkey:uuid
primary - 2048msdosrw     # (msdos is fat16)
primaryswap8192swaprw
primary /boot512ext4rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro
primary /15360ext4rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro
logical-1---


Best regards
Kerim

Hey Kerim,

no not really - my disk_config could be/is wrong.
The following schema need to be created by FAI disk_config:

GPT /dev/sda1 2048 6143 2M BIOS boot partition /dev/sda2 6144 16783359 8G Linux swap /dev/sda3 16783360 17831935 512M Microsoft basic data /boot /dev/sda4 17831936 49289215 15G Microsoft basic data / /dev/sda5 49289216 7812456414 3.6T Linux LVM
But here's the problem: I don't know how.
The /dev/sda1 partition don't have got a mount point and is a type "4" in fdisk/gdisk - so I don't know what I need to write in my disk_config so that FAI will use "type 4" in partition layout. /dev/sda2, /dev/sda3 and /dev/sda4 is clear - everything is "primary" and swap or ext4.


So what do I need to enter in my disk_config that the result will look like:
/dev/sda1 2048 6143 2M BIOS boot partition

Thanks in advance :)

Best regards,
Denny

    Hi Denny,

    there seems to be a mismatch of sorts between your desired schema
    and what you're actually describing. I am going to assume you want
    an EFI partition that you're going to boot off of.

    To do so, this should work:

    disk_config disk1 disklabel:gpt-bios bootable:1 fstabkey:uuid

    primary /boot/efi2048vfatrw
    primaryswap8192swaprw
    primary /boot512ext4rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro
    primary /15360ext4rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro
    logical-1---


    Best regards
    Kerim

    Hello everyone,

    I'm using FAI 5.0 and need a special partition layout for our
    centos kvm installation.

    The partition schema need to be like this:

    GPT /dev/sda1 2048 6143 2M BIOS boot partition /dev/sda2 6144
    16783359 8G Linux swap /dev/sda3 16783360 17831935 512M Microsoft
    basic data /boot /dev/sda4 17831936 49289215 15G Microsoft basic
    data / /dev/sda5 49289216 7812456414 3.6T Linux LVM
    Unfortunately I'm unable to create /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda5 with
    the disk_config.
    I don't know what "fstype" I have to enter, that FAI will
    partitionate /dev/sda1 to "BIOS boot partition" (fdisk type "4").
    fstype "efi" and "bios" will run into an error:
    https://data.bortfeldt.net/f/d9b3239df0/
    My current config_disk-File looks like this:
    # <type> <mountpoint> <size>   <fs type> <mount options> <misc
    options>

    disk_config disk1 disklabel:gpt-bios bootable:3 fstabkey:uuid

    primary -2efi-
    primaryswap8192swaprw
    primary /boot512ext4rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro
    primary /15360ext4rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro
    logical-1---


    So is anyone here who can help me out with my disk_configuration
    so that FAI will partitionate like the schema above?

    Thanks in advance.

    Best regards,
    Denny
