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
One more note:
Make sure you use the format_cmd=format /n and replace_mbr=1
If I allowed the format to complete, I would end up with the blinking cursor
again.
Cheers,
-Eric

Hello, I think it must be like this: [_meta]

I have unattended working nicely and use it to install Dell GX280
computers.
I'm using a bootable linux-usb to start the installation.
When they delivered a bunch of new portables yesterday (Dell Latitude
800), I wanted to install them the same way using unattended.
But after the first reboot
