The three entries that deal with partitioning in the WINNT.SIF are:

[Data]

AutoPartition=0 or 1

[unattended]

Repartition= Yes or No

ExtendOEMPartition=0 or 1

Check out the ref.chm help file in the Support tools.

OEMPreInstall=Yes is meant to help with adding third party drivers to the build that are not included in the base drivers.cab file in Windows.

Hope this helps.

I too use VMware 4.5.2 and it works for me with the above settings depending on how I want to setup my VM.

/unattend        Upgrades your previous version of Windows 98, Windows Millennium Edition, Windows NT 4.0, or Windows 2000 in unattended Setup mode. Setup downloads the Dynamic Update files from Windows Update and includes these files in the installation. All user settings are taken from the previous installation, so no user intervention is required during Setup

do i have to run that command when i for a "fresh install" or does load [WINNT.SIF] automatically? do i need hotfixes installed?
