I'm a bit puzzled, I thought you wrote that to format is the problem. So, the problem is after the textmode part of Win? > I forgot to tell that classic unattended works well, and I can't find what > is the difference between my cd and unattended. Well, I can't tell you, you've build the CD ;-) What did you do to built it? I wonder because unattended already includes parted, so your first paragraphe above puzzles me as well. > Except kernel, but it would be strange that dosemu won't allow format > because of a different kernel. If the problem (blinking cursor) is related to the boot after the textmode install phase, it might indicate that the 2nd level boot loader is not working. The MBR is set, but loads and boots garbage or a WinNT boot loader prepared for another disk or partition. Format is not working, later the boot. Hmm, my guess would be that the Linux boot disk does not correctly identify and/or prepare the boot disk or that, for instance, the partition table is strange, e.g. missing the correct partition ID for DOS/FAT32, has no or multiple boot flags. Or that parted cannot determine the BIOS disk geometry correctly - which is used by the first step in the NT boot loader and is branded into the first sector of the partition. A different kernel can make a huge difference, BTW.
