ignoring disks in kickstart

I know that clearpart and part will both take drive arguments, but I'm
not sure if this will stop anaconda from looking at the other drives or
not.

Example:
clearpart --linux --drives=sda
part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=100 --ondisk=sda

Hope that helps,

Hi,

  I had posted this to anaconda-dev but got no response so I'll try
here.... Does anyone know how to tell anaconda to ignore any disks that
its not installing the system on? In my case I have many external drives
which are all LVM on bare disks that I don't want anaconda to look at
but it insists on stopping on all of these to ask if I want to create a
partition table.

Thanks,
Greg
