Kickstart RAID setup : TypeError

[Albert Dirk L621 <dirk albert siemens com>]

Hi everyone,

I have serious problems setting up my server with
a RAID disk set using kickstart in RedHat 7.2.

I defined disks and RAID assignments in a kickstart file.
I tried several options and much more syntax variations,
but all of them didn't work.

Here is the sequence of my kickstart file with my settings :

part raid.8 --size=128 --onpart sdb1
part raid.1 --size=128 --onpart sda1
part raid.5 --size=1 --grow --onpart sda5
part raid.10 --size=1 --grow --onpart sdb5
part raid.2 --size=2048 --onpart sda2
part raid.6 --size=2048 --onpart sdb2
part raid.7 --size=512 --onpart sdb3
part raid.3 --size=512 --onpart sda3

raid / --fstype ext3 --level=RAID1 raid.2 raid.6
raid swap --fstype swap --level=RAID1 raid.7 raid.3
raid /boot --fstype ext3 --level=RAID1 raid.8 raid.1
raid /mypart --fstype ext3 --level=RAID1 raid.5 raid.10

The following message appears during installation :

File "/usr/lib/anaconda/partitioning.py", line 595, in
sanityCheckAllRequests
swapSize = swapSize + requestSize (request, diskset)
TypeError : number coercion failed

What I am wondering about is, that the kickstart sequence above is the
setting
written by anaconda in anaconda-ks.cfg during a manual RedHat installation.

So, what's wrong in this kickstart settings ????

I appreciate every comment a.s.a.p, I am really in hurry

Thank you

Dirk
