Try and use the code tags, it cleans the board up.

Repartition=No

Should be

Repartition=Yes

assuming you only want 1 partition on the first disk, and wish it to erase anything on that drive. Personally, I find it better to still have the partition screen show up, gives you more control and one last chance to back out. From there on, everything else is unattended.

ok will try now. thanks for the code tip.

[edit] that fixed the problem thanks.
