The mkpart option doesn't work, because it is not writing a filesystem on the partition. In the man page of parted it should do this, but it doesn't. F... Parted!!!
So if we need to create logical partitions we have to create the primary and the logical partitions with the mkpartfs option and the extended one with mkpart option. Could someone tell me how to do that in the install.pl or better in the config.pl Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------- I think I've fix the problem. in install.pl I did the following in the parted section: - my %type_map = (7 => 'ntfs', + my %type_map = (7 => 'fat32', switched ntfs to fat32, first partition (system partition) will be although ntfs - $ret = "$parted mkpartfs $parttype $fs $start $end"; + $ret = "$parted mkpart $parttype $fs $start $end"; mkpartfs switched to mkpart to create extended partitions without a filesystem. sample for partition scheme with logical partition: '20G C:, rest D:' => 'fdisk /pri:20288;fdisk /ext:100,100;fdisk /log:100,100 /spec:7', finaly I use the format.bat to format the d: drive with ntfs format.bat : echo j| %windir%\system32\format d: /q /FS:ntfs /V:DATEN Perhaps someone has a better idea for formating the second partition. And perhaps someone could aplly this fix in the CVS. Thanks to all for your help!
