I don't seem to see what I am doing wrong, I dropped in what you suggested for 
the partition value associated with the mac address of my test computer and 
when I boot up from my bootcd I still get the prompts for partitioning, 
formatting, and replacing the MBR.

The prompts I am getting are from the install.pl script, the function   
yes_no_choice() is called in the subroutines that do the partitioning, mbr, and 
formatting. My goal is to remove these prompts and have the commands come from 
the database. (I am only getting the y/n prompts, my partitioning choice is 
coming from the database)

My original fdisk command worked properly, I just had to answer y/n whenever it 
was generated by install.pl, I was not having to make any of the selections for 
"c drive 100%, c drive 50% and d drive 50%,etc.

Thanks

Our _meta section of unattend.txt file looks (more or less ) like this:

[_meta]
     top=base.bat
     middle="mozilla.bat;tightvnc.bat,cygwin.bat"
     local_admins=""
     fdisk_lba = 1
     replace_mbr = 1
     fdisk_cmds="fdisk /clear 1; fdisk /pri:100,100; fdisk /delete / 
pri:1; fdisk
/pri:3900; fdisk /activate:1"
     format_cmd="format /y /z:seriously /q /u /a /v: c:"

And seems to do most of the things you need.

Regards,
Mike
