jaclaz Posted September 9, 2004 Share Posted September 9, 2004 @codeblueYes, I have used Diskman, but for different purposes, (disk imaging and virtual disk making).And No, I think it does not support as per now NTFS directly, but that could be the lesser problem as there is the converting tool.As I see it, Godfatha is right, you need to boot in DOS or FREEDOS, run the batch file(s) needed to fdisk and format (here is a link to the FREEDOS fdisk, which appears to be scriptable:http://www.23cc.com/free-fdisk/),then invoke the windows setup.Another possibility is Ranish's Partition Manager:http://www.ranish.com/part/Again, I use a lot the latter, but I have never tried to script it, most probably it can be done by the method seen above for fdisk or "echoing" characters into it.jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edg21 Posted October 1, 2004 Share Posted October 1, 2004 Never figured it out how use it, but my guess is that if you REALLY want this, then i will get a PM to tell me that you got it working during unattended install!! I'm very interrested....I use the follwing in WinPE to setup a single full size partition & format it, you could easily modify it.dp.cmddiskpart /s diskpart.cfgformat c: /fs:NTFS /v:"" /Q /Ydiskpart.cfgSelect Disk 0CleanCreate Partition primaryActiveAssign Letter=cexit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
