I know the thread is really old but:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...tended-484378/
I'm having the exact same problem. My specifics are:
- Tyring to install CentOS 6.3
- Doing a netinstall using a FTP site
- The installation is for a guest OS (KVM).
The install is being launched with:
virt-install -n server1.example.com -r 768 -l /media/netinstall -x "ks=ftp://192.168.100.2/pub/ks.cfg"
The install starts and gets to the point where I see "Error processing drive. This device may need to be re-initialized." The relevant part of my KS file:
clearpart --initlabel --all
# Disk partitioning information
part /boot --fstype="ext4" --size=500
part /home --fstype="ext4" --size=2048
part swap --fstype="swap" --size=2048
part / --fstype="ext4" --grow --size=1
When I switch to the 3rd terminal for information, here's what I see:
required disklable type for sda (1) is None
default diskalbel type for sda is msdos
selecting msdos diskalbel for sda based on size
Based on "required diskalbel type for sda (1) is none" I decided to remove the --initlabel parm, however I still face the same problem (prompted to initialize the disk).
TIA
