This is the part where I don't follow you. If partitions have not been created, how is the kickstart program supposed to know which drives are involved in the installation and which ones are not? > Other improvements might be for it to put up a splash screen at the very > beginning of the process, detailing exactly what the installer is going > to do, which disk drives it is going to muck with, and which partitions > it is going to destory, and then ask the user to type "confirm" or > somesuch. This sounds a lot like the procedure you go through when you abstain from telling kickstart to wipe out the partitions.
