true, but it refers you to partman-auto-recipe.txt which "appears" to
"cover your case of interest". [snip]
My description was unclear. See my reply to Mr. Carter.
The example you gave Mr. Carter:-
A typical scheme is
sda1 - an install resembling typical user defaults
sda5, sda6, sda7 - a "current" experimental installs
sda8 - local repository
sda9 - swap
All the disk space is accounted for.
I then choose among (sda5, sda6, sda7) for target of next trial.
And my question remains:-
How does "partition recipe" approach *not* do that??
In case I'm still unclear - the "partition recipe" approach can be used
to do an automated install to sda5/sda6/sda7 as given in your example -
unless there's a conditional logic for which you haven't shown the
algorithm.
There is no additional logic.
i.e.:-
1. choose from one of the detected formatted partitions OR supply the
preseed cfg with the identity of that partition
How?
I don't find description of that procedure nor an example.
The reference documentation I'm using is:
http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/apbs04.html.en
http://www.debian.org/releases/wheezy/example-preseed.txt
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=d-i/debian-installer.git;a=blob_plain;f=doc/devel/partman-auto-recipe.txt;hb=HEAD
2. format the partition
3. do single partition install to that partition
If partman-auto can do it then the partition recipe will work.
Kind regards
