Forgot to copy the whole stuff.. [_meta] ntinstall_cmd = "nt5x-install" fdisk_confirm = "0" fdisk_lba = "1" replace_mbr = "1" fdisk_cmds = "fdisk /clear 1;fdisk 1 /pri:4000;fdisk /activate:1" format_cmd = "format /y /z:seriously /q /u /a /v: c:" > > I'm currently experiencing some really weird bugs where the bootsector of > > the local harddisk gets screwed up and the machine refuses to boot.

Hm, the only other thing I noticed is that copying the Windows CD to the local harddisk is taking longer than with 4.7. - jens ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
