Partition+formating Controls

[ksoggs]

For my particular use, i need to be able to have windows partition AND FORMAT all partitions before windows installs. I have to have my user profiles (documents and settings) on a seperate drive from the system drive. And so i need to have the system and d: formatted and ready for files before windows loads or it will give me headaches when it cant find the "user files" when it tried to load.

I can always just setup and format all the partitions before i begin my install... but doesnt that defeat the whole concept of "unattended setup"

I know there are some switches to format the main drive and such, but how do i set it up to partition and format multiple drives before installing. (or at least before trying to access user files (doc and settings)
