Hi Martin. I used formatted dasd in first case and unformatted later. Both seems to work as it run dasdfmt when needed. However, I have setup a disklayout to be prepared for readonlyroot and also LVM on some mountpoints to allow later growth. It seems these 10 or 11 disks is too much, the installer just crasches when I press Done after having clicked 'I want to partioning myself'. Don't know if the two VDSK's also causes some problem. If I don't mark them to be used they is at least ignored.
So we ended up just using two disks and autopartioning, just to have it rolling. And after that adding one more 'complication' at each install-try. We got a working instance with four disks almost as we want it :-) So now we are now trying a kickstartfile to be able to have all our disks setup as we want it.

I have seen it crash when using an unformatted DASD as installation destination. The dasdfmt appeared to format the DASD successfully, though. A second attempt using the same DASD worked fine and didn't require another attempt at DASD formatting.
