how to format befor the installation

[yazanaswad]

Dear all, i have a question about formating the partition befor it starts instaling , I put

[Data]
    AutoPartition=1
    MsDosInitiated="0"
    UnattendedInstall="Yes"

[Unattended]
   UnattendMode=FullUnattended
   OemSkipEula=Yes
   OemPreinstall=Yes
   TargetPath=\WINDOWS
   Repartition=No

what i want is that whenever it finds a partition to install it should formats it first and then starts the instalation ...IS ther such way ?????

Thx

Change REPARTITION=NO to REPARTITION=YES

However, this will also delete the partition. I don't think you can choose to just format the partition...

It takes your first HDD and partitions the whole things as one drive.

So if your c drive is 120gb, you'll get a c drive with 120gb

i think u make a big mistake. u better do handmaticaly select the partition and which format, how big and and, and, and then it goes further in unattend way. otherwise u maybe format the wrong partition or size.

so leave autopartition=0
