Hiya,

 

I found that adding the following to my [_meta] section worked (on 4.8RC4):

    fix_disk_geo_heads = ""

    fix_disk_geo_sectors = ""

 

The fix for NTLDR Not Found seems to have its own issues.....

 

Regards,

Mark.

Thank you for the suggestion.

The section you described was included automatically, minus the "quotes" around 
the zero.  I tried including them, but as I suspected, this made no difference. 
 No luck!

It seems that I'm having the same issue as many others on the mailing-list.  
Upon the first reboot after the Unattended / Windows installation copies the 
installation files over from the Unattended server, I'm left with nothing but a 
discouraging blinking cursor.  I'm attempting an install of Windows 2000 Server 
(vanilla) using Unattended (4.6 or 4.7).  The entire Unattended process works 
fine up until that point.

 

Did you edit unattend.txt?

Make sure that this section is in there:

[Data]
    AutoPartition=1
    MsDosInitiated="0"
    UnattendedInstall=Yes

I ran into at least something similar and adding that section back in got me 
past the blinking cursor.
