I am trying to perform an unattended installation of Windows Server 2003 with SP2 on a bare metal HP ProLiant DL380 G4 server, using WinPE 2.0 and customised scripts from the SmartStart Scripting Toolkit 1.9 win32 Text-mode setup completes successfully, but when the server restarts to enter the GUI stage of Setup, an error message of "A disk read error occurred" is displayed. A have located the problem to the format section, a can run the installation by format to fat32 first and then convert to ntfs in unattend.txt but a realy want to format using ntfs first. (Diskpart entrys) rescan select disk=0 clean create partition primary select partition 1 active assign letter=c format fs=NTFS quick or i can format using script later during the installation @%MsTools%\format c: /FS:NTFS /Q /y copying a lot of files then.. c:\i386\winnt32 /s:c:\i386 /unattend:c:\unattend.txt /syspart:c
