Scripted installation issue

When I do a scripted install the local storage does not show up in the Storage section of the Configuration tab. I can add it, but it warns me "Warning: Teh current disk layout will be destroyed. All file systems and dat will be lost permanently"

If I add the local storage the next reboot brings me to a GRUB prompt. Why is my scripted install not adding this lcoal storage to the Storage section of the Configuration tab? And how if possible to I get it added now without delteing everything and causing a GRUB prompt scenario?

Here is the Partitioning section of my script:

  1. Partitioning

part /boot --fstype ext3 --size 250 --ondisk sda

part / --fstype ext3 --size 5120 --ondisk sda

part swap --size 1600 --ondisk sda

part None --fstype vmkcore --size 100 --ondisk sda

part /home --fstype ext3 --size 2048 --ondisk sda

part /tmp --fstype ext3 --size 2048 --ondisk sda

part /var --fstype ext3 --size 2048 --ondisk sda

part /opt --fstype ext3 --size 2048 --ondisk sda

part /vmimages --fstype ext3 --size 1 --grow --ondisk sda
