Windows 2003 unattended on muliple hardware

[chanakya]

Hi all,

Since 2 weeks I am trying to source materials and KB's which explains the deployment of Windows 2003 OS on different hardware platform but I really couldn't locate what I was after.

My requirement are:

1, I need a framework to deploy Windows 2003 on multiple platforms like HP, IBM and DELL.

2, The deployment should be truly automatic and it should assign IP address and join the newly built server to the Domian

3, I should have flexibiity to choose different C:\ Partition sizes.

I know RIS has been replaced by WDS, is WDS capable of doing this? any help on this would be much appreciated.

Thanks in Advance
