October 20, 200520 yr I got a problem here with setting up Windows XP Professional via a network installation.I have made a complete sysprep with Altiris Deployment Console, and everything works when the client PC has a FAT partition to put the setup files on.The problem here is that we want to put the new setup on all PC's, including our new PC line, with a NTFS partition. Only one partition exist, which is NTFS.I was hoping to use "LocalSourceOnCD=1" in [Data] in unattend.txt, but that won't do.My question now is, does anyone have experience with this and how did you solve it?It's kinda driving me nuts by now, after searching the internet on relevant information, but nothing seems to work for me.
October 21, 200520 yr Author Well, it seems that what I want can only be done by the bootable CD.I am going to use GDISK from Symantec Ghost to make a 100% disk partition, FAT32 and let the formatting do on-the-fly. Won't be a problem, just hoped that it could be done more nicely.[edit]Well, gdisk is nice but DOS_ONLY.IMG from Alitirs which supports FAT32 is even nicer for this. I can use this boot flop to do what I want with gdisk in one job, instead of having two jobs. Case closed...[/edit] Edited October 21, 200520 yr by freshy98
