instant000 Posted July 24, 2009 Posted July 24, 2009 I'm trying to install windows unattended, but ...I'm prompted about the parititoning and installation location ...why? How can I get past this screen without having to decide how I want the drive partitioned? I only want one big C drive, one partition ... how can I do this here?Here are the "Data" and "Unattended" sections of my winnt.sif:[Data] AutoPartition=1 MsDosInitiated="0" UnattendedInstall="Yes"[unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended OemSkipEula=Yes OemPreinstall=No TargetPath=\WINDOWS
Maelstorm Posted July 26, 2009 Posted July 26, 2009 Add/Change the following lines to your unattended setup:[unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended UnattendSwitch=Yes TargetPath="\Windows" Repartition=Yes WaitForReboot=No OemSkipEula=Yes OemPreinstall=Yes

You know, that wizard that creates your unattend.txt file for you? ...Imagine my shock when I'm asked to say how the disk is partitioned, when I thought I had already covered that in the wizard.EDIT:This worked awesome, thanks!I now see where I should have read this page more carefully. (It covers the switches that I didn't use.)http://unattended.msfn.org/unattended.xp/view/web/19/Thanks again! Edited July 27, 2009 by instant000
