I'm getting exactly the same error when I use either 'onpart' or 'usepart' (Ubuntu 10.10). In addition, the partitioner creates 8 new partitions after sda9, which is not what I was expecting.
My kickseed configuration file: part /boot --fstype ext4 --size 1024 --asprimary --usepart sda1 part swap --size 4096 --asprimary --usepart sda2 part / --fstype ext4 --size 10240 --asprimary --usepart sda3 part /var --fstype ext4 --size 10240 --usepart sda5 part /usr --fstype ext4 --size 10240 --usepart sda6 part /opt --fstype ext4 --size 10240 --usepart sda7 part /tmp --fstype ext4 --size 10240 --usepart sda8 part /export --fstype ext4 --size 10240 --grow --usepart sda9 --noformat My syslog file: Jan 19 12:21:53 kickseed: unsupported restriction '--usepart' Jan 19 12:21:53 kickseed: unsupported restriction '--usepart' Jan 19 12:21:53 kickseed: unsupported restriction '--usepart' Jan 19 12:21:53 kickseed: unsupported restriction '--usepart' Jan 19 12:21:53 kickseed: unsupported restriction '--usepart' Jan 19 12:21:53 kickseed: unsupported restriction '--usepart' Jan 19 12:21:53 kickseed: unsupported restriction '--usepart' Jan 19 12:21:53 kickseed: unsupported restriction '--usepart' -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/537421 Title: automatic partitioning within kickstart does not work -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
