RE: [Unattended] Problems installing XP
The amount of drivers could be a reason (aboun 25M) I'll try changing that or upgrading the unattended version. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Russell Smith Sent: Thursday, March 25, 2004 9:53 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Unattended] Problems installing XP I have been installing win XP successfully on 2G for ages now.

RE: [Unattended] Problems installing XP
The question is ... How can I do dat with the DOS boot image? I believe it only supports FAT-16. Is this correct?

When you select fat-32 you can allocate more Mb. At least that is when using the Linux bootdisk. But i am sure that the other bootdisk will work also. imdos Any suggestions?

Upgrade to a more recent version of Unattended. 2G is the limit for a FAT16 partition under MS-DOS 6.22. You can try increasing it to 2047M, which might just be enough. But really, you need to change your DOS. Starting with version 4.0, Unattended switched to FreeDOS, which supports FAT32. We also now create a 4000M initial partition by default. You can also roll your own boot disk using MS-DOS 7 or 8, which also support FAT32. I believe our new DOS boot disk should work with the old install share. But I am not sure. The new Linux boot disk definitely requires an updated install share. - Pat --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
