Denney Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Can anyone tell me what I need to put into my WINNT.SIF file to do the following unattended:1. Remove all existing partitions from first hard drive.2. Create 1 NTFS partition to install Windows on (using FULL drive space).3. Format the 1 partition using NTFS.At the moment, I've deduced it to:[Data] AutoPartition="1"[Unattended] FileSystem=NTFS Repartition="yes" TargetPath=\WINDOWSIs this correct?

Vann Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 I would change FileSystem=NTFS to FileSystem=ConvertNTFS, but yes, that is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denney Posted July 12, 2004 Author Share Posted July 12, 2004 I thought "ConvertNTFS" would only convert a FAT drive. Ahwell, just tested my "WINNT.SIF" file and it works great.Even with the "Filesystem=NTFS" line. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vann Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 ConvertNTFS, I'm pretty sure, formats the drive if it's RAW and converts it if its FAT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berik Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 And what if you only want to format the C: partition in NTFS, and leave the other partitions untouched?Becouse I can't format a partition if I'm using an unattended cd, even if it's in ProvideDefaults-modeI only want to format the C: partition for a reinstall of windows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
