From my understanding, when using a Multi-Boot Dvd, there's no way to modify the winnt.sif file to automatically partition the entire disk, though you can in RIS? Is this correct? Is there anyway around it? I'd like to add the following parameters...but for my DVD [RemoteInstall] Repartition = Yes UseWholeDisk = Yes

I've succesfully created a Multi-Boot D VD than runs in unattended mode. Following installation of the operating system, I have a [GuiRunOnce] job that executes a batch file in order to do some cleanup. I realize that I can modify the sif file to allow the user to manually configure TCP/IP settings, but if I do this and the user isn't present, this will delay the installation of the operating system. I want to add the option to configure static network settings at the end of the OS setup. I have a batch file that will prompt the user for IP information and then use the netsh.exe command to configure settings, but would prefer to do this in GUI mode. Is there a way to call the same wizard that XP calls during OS setup? I'd like to call the same screen that is attached in the picture...any ideas?

Am I correct in stating that the Repartition switch only applies for RIS installs and won't work from DVD based unatteded installations? If so, is there a way to do the samething for media based unattended installations?
