Re: curtin custom partitions

 

I *think* I found it:

/usr/lib/curtin/helpers/common

specifically the pt_mbr function:

    local start="2048" pt1size="" maxsize="4294967296"

Which corresponds to the partition it creates:
/dev/sda1   *        2048  4294967295  2147482624   83  Linux

How does it determine its going to create a single 2TB root filesystem? 
What code can i change to do this?

Kyle, 

Currently there is no support for creating a custom partition table using the fastpath installer. This would be a nice feature.

Hi, 

I am trying to figure out how to create a custom partition table using the fastpath installer. Has anyone done this before? 

I have ~2.7TB of usable drive space, the default install creates one 2TB partition of root and nothing else. I'd like to be able to configure lvm, but I would settle for being able to set the root partition size. 

Thanks, 
Kyle
