Centos/RHEL5.4 : Anaconda-Kickstart and UUID


Hello,

I am using the "harddrive" option in a kickstart config to have it pick up isolinux files from a USB flash drive. I have been able to get it work by specifying the device name directly, but if I specify a LABEL or UUID, it does not work.

Here is what my ks.cfg looks like.
Code:
install
text
harddrive --partition=LABEL="/install" --dir=/
lang en_US.UTF-8
keyboard us
cmdline
skipx
halt
%ksappend include.cfg
And this does not work.

It almost seems like the version of Anaconda in Centos5.4 does not support specifying UUID or LABELs, but I have not been able to confirm that from the Release notes.

Appreciate any tips/references/documentation.

Gautam
