Johan,

I *just* found a fix you might be interested in =)

Here's what I went through in discovering this handy fix:
I formatted using a Windows ME boot floppy to 2000MB FAT16.  Then I used
GParted to format this partition to FAT32.  I booted up Unattended and used
the fdisk utility to observe what the partition was being read as and it
reported Start 0.031 End 2047.346.

I tried fdisk_cmds to create a 2047MB partition.  This didn't help.  I then
tried fdisk_cmds that created a 2047.346MB partition.  Bingo! =)  Give it a
shot and let me know if it works for you too!

Forget pre-formatting!  Here's the relevant portion you'll need to add:

   fdisk_lba=1
   fdisk_cmds="fdisk /clear 1; fdisk /delete /pri:1; fdisk /pri:2047.346;
fdisk /activate:1"
   fdisk_confirm=0
   format_cmd="format /n"
   replace_mbr=1
   edit_files=0

Cheers,
-Eric
