Profile layout for re-jumping a Server

Currently been using our jumpstart server for setting up new boxes or
blowing away old boxes and starting from scratch.

I am wondering if there is a way to specify in the profile to mount up a
disk but do not 'newfs' it.

The reason for this is because we want to use a profile for re-jumping
certain types of machines but we want the data in /data c0t1d0s7 to be kept
and not formatted. Then after the jumpstart we want it to mount up /data by
having it in the vfstab.

The only way feasable I can see of doing this would be remove the line in
the profile pertaining to c0t1d0s7 and leave it out.

Then create a finish script that adds the correct line to the end of vfstab.

I was hoping there was an option to label the partition but do not format
it.

Any one run into this or have any suggestions?

Thanks,

Chris
