Hi,

The documentation says I should be able to use the text below in the meta_ section of unattended.txt to do this, unfortunatly, it hasn't worked.
[_meta]
fdisk_lba=1
fdisk_cmds="fdisk /clear 1;fdisk /pri:4000;fdisk /activate:1"
fdisk_confirm=0
format_cmd="format /y /z:seriously /q /u /a /v: c:"
replace_mbr=1


I also need something slightly different, Option 4, 12Gb C:\ rest D:\

Using DOS boot cd, does it really matter which disk I use?

Hope someone can help with this or point me in the right direction.


This is what I use for some of my computers. It creates a 20G C: and uses the rest of the disk for D:.


[_meta]
fdisk_lba = 1
replace_mbr = 1
format_cmd = "format /y /z:seriously /q /u /a /v: c:"
fdisk_confirm = 0
fdisk_cmds = "fdisk /clear 1;fdisk /pri:20000;fdisk /pri:100,100 /spec:7;fdisk /delete /pri:1;fdisk /pri:4000;fdisk /activate:1"


When reinstalling I may want to keep the D: partition (this only works if c: and d: already exist):
fdisk_cmds = "fdisk /delete /pri:1;fdisk /pri:4000;fdisk /activate:1"


I don't know why your commands didn't work, but generally the best way to do customizations is to manually install a computer using Unattended, and then looking at the resulting c:\netinst\unattend.txt file. This will contain the results of all your answers.
