For the record you can also do echo y | format c: /q /v:vollabel and not need to have the YES file exist at all.
Cheers, Curtis ----- Original Message ----- From: "Johnson, Chris A -ND" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [Unattended] Format Confirmation Bypass in 4.0 The command to format the disk without confirmation is not working for me in version 4.0. The "/y" switch appears to be ignored. To workaround this problem, I used some text redirection. Create a text file called YES on the boot floppy with contents of only "YES" and change the format command in site/unattend.txt to: format_cmd = "format c: /q /v: < YES" Chris ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
