nshah786 Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 I'm trying to do a FULL NTFS partition not the quick. But with these commands in my answer file, it's still doing a QUICK NTFS partition. Is there something i'm not doing correctly?[Data] AutoPartition=1 MsDosInitiated="0" UnattendedInstall="Yes" WaitForReboot=No[unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended OemSkipEula=Yes OemPreinstall=Yes TargetPath=\WINDOWS FileSystem=NTFS Repartition=Yes UnattendSwitch="Yes"Thanks,nshah786 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

durex Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 try adding this to your winnt.sif:[DiskConfig] Disk1="Disk1.config"[Disk1.config] Size1="*" PartitionType1="primary" FileSystem1="ntfs" Quickformat1="yes"Quickformat1="yes"?Wouldnt that mean to perform a Quick format and not a full?

Incroyable HULK Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 Does somebody know if this [DiskConfig] code works? I've been looking in the deploy.chm file for SP2 and I didn't find anything about it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metzen Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 Does somebody know if this [DiskConfig] code works? I've been looking in the deploy.chm file for SP2 and I didn't find anything about it!I've only ever seen it in a winbom.ini file, so I don't know if it works in a unattend.txt or winnt.sif file (I suspect it doesn't)...

Tsunami Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 It's mentioned under the winbom.ini section in SP1's ref.chm, but there's no winbom.ini section in SP2's ref.chm, so I don't know if it's even possible in SP2 then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaris Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 It means it will be formatted Quick, so what is the problem? you wanna stay longer until the HDD it will be fully formatted? it is NO difference except the time allocated for that !!!!!!!!

ribond Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 RE: Full format vs Quick format. Full format is slightly safer. Quick format may not notice bad sectors, etcThere is no key available for winnt.sif that will make Setup perform a full format rather than a quick format. If you need to do full format you'll have to do this by hand. May I suggest WinPE? RE: Disk Config section.-it's not supported in any answer file except WinBom.INI-Yes it is supported in SP2 in Winbom.ini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
