balubeto Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 HII would like to create an Autounattend.xml file for Vista Ultimate SP1 64-bit Retail able to completely erase partitions of a hard-disk and to create new partitions, even if Vista sees a black hard-disk (ie a hard disk is not formatted). How do I create this file?I have noticed that the instruction <WillWipeDisk>true</ WillWipeDisk> does not work with black hard-disk and, logically, this means that other instructions of partitioning do not work . So, regardless of hard-disk that is already partitioned or black, I'm looking for a solution that will erase any partition and continue to partition the hard disk following the instructions written in the Autounattend.xml file.Anyone have any idea what to do?THANKSBYE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRGCAV Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 (edited) I was looking to do something similar. To partition a blank drive into sevewral partitions prior to installing vista but part of the vista installation process.I am not a programmer. But I suspect a batch file using fdisk or EFdisk could be contained within an autoattend.xml file.It should work but is not an efficient method.alsohttp://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=129534MRGCAV@Gmail.com Edited March 9, 2009 by MRGCAV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
