Hi everyone,

I'm trying to understand and customize the unattended setup process.

I'm doing every part of the process by hand using damnsmalllinux cd.

I'm stuck on the bootloader part just after the installation with

winnt /rx:lang /s:source_part /u:unattend_location

In fact I used mkdosfs, because I'm unable to use the format /y
/z:seriously /q /u /a /v: c:
it produces the following error :

 A:\>format /y /z:seriously /q /u /a /v:   c:
 Win98? Default BPB *FAT1x* 18634 sectors/FAT, 512 root size. FAT32 forced.
 Int 21.440d.4860 error 00. No FAT32 kernel?
 FAT1x FAT size 18634 sectors?
  [Code 55]

 A:\>

1) Is it possible to use mkdosfs and ms-sys to build the partition and
bootloader code ?

2) Did you had the problem with format and how can I fix it ?
- I've try another Freedos bootdisk, it does format well within dosemu,
however it doesn't reboot after that.

For the MBR, I did dd if=freedos-mbr.bin of=/dev/hda count=446 bs=1

I did everything on an IBM Thinkpad T42. I don't know if it is the same
boot problem than IBM X60

Thanks a lot for any tips,
Bruno
