Thanks for reply, the problem was, that the partition with the 'old' windows was at the beginning of the hd. renumbering the partition had no effect, because the windows setup align it in the 'right' way. But when you use ntfsclone to put it on the second partition and modify the bootsector and the boot.ini as described here http://www.dominok.net/en/it/en.it.clonexp.html it works. After this you must run parted manually for the first partition (rm 1, mkpart primary fat32 0 80000).
By the way: How to attend the parted commands to the unattended.txt and is there a variable like parted_confirm = 0 ? > Those are special (I think) situation, which (I think) are not target > of unattended. I think so too, but unattended let me the chance to make it the way i needed :-) . Thanks, Martin tovis schrieb: > Hi Martin! > > I'm again not clean what you trying to do.
