I'm dealing with virtual OS images on a NetApp: apparently, there are
big issues if the partitions of the filesystem images are not aligned
with the 4096 byte blocks of the NetApp filesystems themselves.

NetApp has tools to re-arrange the OS images after installation, but
they seem ugly. I'd like to set up the partitions correctly from the
RHEL 5 kickstart. It seems easiest to simply set the "sectors" to 32
instead of 63, but I'm having some difficulty getting that working
properly in the kickstart images. Alternately, I can manipulate the
filesystem images with parted, but that typically leaves "fdisk"
complaining that the partitions don't align with the sectors.

Does anyone have a good kickstart solution for this?
