Windows 2k Unattended Auto Format Problem


Recommended Posts

Heres how my winnt.sif file starts and the problem that i'm running into is that it will still prompt me to manually choose what to format. I was able to by pass that with my XP unattened install without any problems automatically formating the drive. Is there an extra line or something that I need in order for it to partition without prompting?

;SetupMgrTag

[Data]

AutoPartition=1

MsDosInitiated="0"

UnattendedInstall="Yes"

[unattended]

FileSystem=ConvertNTFS

UnattendMode=FullUnattended

OemSkipEula=Yes

OemPreinstall=Yes

TargetPath=\WINNT

[GuiUnattended]

AdminPassword=its

AutoLogon=Yes

AutoLogonCount=1

OEMSkipRegional=1

TimeZone=20

MsDosInitiated="0"

There should not be " around the data, you use them when there are spaces in the values that you put in. (however i dont think that it stops it from working)

[unattended]

Repartition = Yes

and remove

FileSystem=ConvertNTFS

Repartition will blow the partitions away and automatically format the new on using NTFS
