Setting the CD to automatically create & format a Hard Drive

[Deano]

Hi

Newbie here

Just a quick question. I've been looking at nLite with a view to creating an unattended install CD for XP. The application works great and I highly recommend it

One question though. I was hoping to skip the disk format section at the beginning of the installation. Is there a way to do this? I was under the impression that adding (or amending) the following sections in the WINNT.SIF file would do the trick, but I'm not having any luck -

[Data]

Autopartition=1

UnattendedInstall="Yes"

[unattended]

Filesystem=NTFS

Repartition=Yes

Basically, I create the ISO image and then use MagicISO to amend the file before burning the image to CD. Am I doing something wrong here? Any advice greatly appreciated!!

WINNT.SIF

this will delete all partation of hard drive and then create only one partation then it format it with ntfs...

If you skip file system NTFS to * then i hope no error will occer.

And take in mind don't provide Key when upload file on net
