Software / Unattended installation --- How to create D drive

« on: March 10, 2004, 08:56:58 PM »

I'm quite appreciated for many friendly guys help here .
I'd like to ask another question about unattend which seems nobody raised ago.

I want to install windows 2000 on a couple of PCs, unattend file is prepared but I do need to create a C drive in 10GB and an extended partion D: in 30 GB, so how to revise the unattend file to do that?

I know "Repartition" Key maybe helpful bu I failed as it seems only delete all the used partition then use the whole hd to create a C drive. another key "ExtendOemPartition=" seems helpful but actually it's nothing. So anbody else can be experienced for this topic?

thx a ton http://images.thetechguide.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\'\' />


Here is my unattend.txt file for ur detail,

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

Software / Solaris and Windows, Dual Boot, How to ?

« on: March 09, 2004, 10:41:19 PM »

Hi, guy, I succeed 3 years ago , to install solaris 7.0 + windows NT and windows 2000 on a quite old PC, although M$ don't recommend to create 2nd pri.partition but actually it's reliable , simply use partition magic to resize a empty space in the begin of your hd, then solaris will recognize the space then use it to install, at last it will install a sun dual boot manager in the MBR then your system will be dual-bootable.


good luck.
