MAAS Custom Partitioning

Currently, MAAS doesn’t support custom partitioning through the MAAS dashboard for CentOS. However, you can utilize curtin to perform this task for you.

Here’s an example /etc/maas/preseeds/curtin_userdata_centos assuming /dev/vda is your disk:

#cloud-config

verbosity: 3
showtrace: true

block-meta:
    format: gpt

partitioning_commands:
