jeremyschubert Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Hey Folks,I've almost got my unattended 2000 and XP installs down to a science. The only problem is that you can't extend the partition when you are doing a network install. So I've started to use aefdisk to first create a formatted fat32 partition. Then the computer reboots and is supposed to start installing windows. But I get a message saying that "the bootloader cannot start"The aefdisk command I'm using is aefdisk /formatfat /pri:0:0c I'm wondering if I'm supposed to any/all of the following switches in addition?/a (to set the partition as active)/mbr/cvtareaThanks,Jeremy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremyschubert Posted January 26, 2007 Author Share Posted January 26, 2007 OK, I think I figured it out. I have to include the /mbr switch so that windows can install properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
