Greetings!
Love your stuff so far. Am deploying Dell Optiplex GX260s for WinXP.
Most Dells have a hidden partition that is actually partition 1 of the disk,
which I'd like to try to preserve so our warranty still works.
I've worked out what I think are the commands to do so manually:
fdisk /delete /pri:2
fdisk /prio:2000
fdisk /activate:2 (even tho' it fdisk /info /tech alreadys show
activated)
fdisk /reboot
After the reboot, I find that I must again activate the partition before I
can format. What am I neglecting here?
I think I can manage updating the perl to add this as an option, tho' I am a
perl rookie.
Finally, as a future-feature request, what the techs say they want is
something really fast with all the defaults built in - more or less a
network based boot scenario where one-size fits (almost) all. They'd like a
boot floppy or CD they can insert and walk away from till it's time to
remove it and reboot, then a quick script on first boot to name the rascal
properly and join the domain.
