I am having trouble with my unattended install.

as of now I am booting from a win98 bootfloppy immage on a cd

checking drive size

Creating partitions with gdisk using this formula(not code.this is just my formula)

--------------

if disk1 >= 10gb

then c=10gb d=remaining

else c=4gb d=remaining

--------------

format them FAT32(gdisk dosnt support NTFS)

run smartdrv.exe

launch unattended install

this works ok for me as I have the installer convert the drive to NTFS but I do have a problem.

when it reboots it boots from the 98 floppy image again.

-----------------------------------------------------------

is there a way I can just do a regular(as in NTloader booting instead of 98 floppy immage) unattended install that makes all of disk1 one big NTFS partition.

then run a batch midway through the installer(before my OEMs install) to shrink the NTFS C drive down and create an NTFS D drive with the remaining space

(I am required to have a d: drive to store local userdata)

anyone got any suggestions?
