-====== CentOS 6/7 EFI Kickstart ====== 
- 
-The only difference for EFI based systems in a kickstart file is the addition of a /boot/efi partition. 
- 
-It is placed in the "Physical Partitions" section after the /boot partition. 
-<code bash> 
-# Physical Partitions # 
-part /boot --fstype="ext4" --ondisk=sda --size=512 
-part /boot/efi --fstype="efi" --ondisk=sda --size=512 --fsoptions="umask=0077,shortname=winnt" 
-part pv.01 --fstype="lvmpv" --ondisk=sda --grow --size=18512
