Test Zero Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 To accomplish what you're trying to do, I would use WindowsPE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airmr Posted March 19, 2004 Share Posted March 19, 2004 1 Make a 98 Boot CD 2 Check FDISK Parameters and start it from the autoexec.bat3 Use a systemrestart tool for rebooting if no parameter in fdisk.4 let the autoexec.bat or a script check if drive C is there (dunno if its possible without it being formatted), if so perform Format with parameters5 Do the Xcopy Format with Installation start after that.Thats the rough plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
