moonman Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 hellofew days ago as I startet fiddling around with unattended xp-cds the extendPartition worked. I manually create a 2gig FAT partition and let setup convert it and extend it by 8gig. I also use this at work with OnCommand CCM (sw deployment system). after extending the winnt.sif and further tweaking and "hotfixing" there is no way getting this right anymore.I thought it might be gosh's stripping down the source-files, so I made a new ISO from scratch using the original CD.tried it in vmware and virtualpc. even the real setup on a real pc doesn't convert. as I remember, the conversion takes place (should!) after a reboot in gui-setup (like the filesystemcheck after a crash)virtual disk is 16gig, the real disk is 60gig, enough space.....any hints on that?are there any other parameter "extendOemPartition" depends on??or is it unsupported by cd-install?? I think I startet playing around with the unattend.txt and winnt.exe over network (not winnt.sif on CD). OemPreinstall=Yes UnattendSwitch=Yes FileSystem="ConvertNTFS" ExtendOEMPartition="8000, nowait" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipsed Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 I think it's because the cd-install... I wondered about the same thing. It works great with RIS-install Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
