We currently use LVM to provide disks to our Xen VMs. It seems as though kickstart insists on always creating a partition on a disk, instead of just using the whole disk.
However what we'd like to do is, for example, the LVM volume appears as /dev/hdd to the VM, we'd like to have kickstart just create a filesystem on this device and use it. There's no problem doing this after the kickstart (eg. mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdd; mount /dev/hdd /somewhere) but kickstart seems to insist on creating a /dev/hdd1. This causes problems as we have to calculate the offset and can't easily take advantage of LVM features like snapshotting for backups. Anyone know of a way to do this?
