Errors creating multiple partitions with the same name on different disks using kickstart

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

  • Seeing python backtraces when attempting to create two partitions with the same name on different disks.

  • This is mainly seen when the system is being set up with BIOS/GPT boot that will allow legacy BIOS to boot when the boot device contains a GPT.

part biosboot --fstype=biosboot --size=1     --ondisk=/dev/sda
part biosboot --fstype=biosboot --size=1     --ondisk=/dev/sdb
