I have made a unattended image of XP Pro. But I can not manage to get
to make the partition part right! I want it to make a single NTFS
partition on 10 GB, and leave the rest unpatitioned for later Linux
Install.
How do I do that unattended? I have read about WinPE, but I can not get
to work!?

Because my boss say so..... It is part of my education.
So does anyone have an idea how to solve this problem?

Obviously not in the groups you originally posted to. They're linux groups,
linux lusers are too stupid to know how to help you... plus, your OP was
cut.

It's enough to say that nobody seems to know how to solve his problem or
they would have posted it. We're already fighting over OS intelligence
levels in the other sub-thread of this question.

Correction. No one in alt.os.development, alt.os.linux, alt.os.linux.redhat,
alt.comp.opensource know the answer. No one in alt.windows-xp or
alt.os.windows-xp have seen the OP's question. It was cross-posted with most
of the text cut.

linux makes you stupid.

Again, I demand a source or proof for your statement that Linux makes
you stupid. If you fail to supply one I will have to consider you a
senseless, bitter Windows user who simply doesn't wish to face the fact
that levels of intelligence can't be assigned to people on the basis of
the operating system they use.

She is a bitter unhappy troll. Just killfile... She is never going to
say anything interesting.

You're right, I should killfile her, but killfiles are for pussies like you.

Guys can you just stop this altogether or at least exclude inappropriate
groups from your posts (alt.os.development is very inappropriate IMO to
what's going on, I mean calling names, saying someone's stupid etc etc)?

Thank you!

In your winbom.ini set the size of the partitions, and reformat the
2nd partition later when you install Linux.


[DiskConfig]
Disk1 = Disk1.config

[Disk1.config]
WipeDisk = YES
Size1 = 20%
SetActive1 = YES
PartitionType1 = PRIMARY
FileSystem1 = NTFS
QuickFormat1 = YES
Size2 = 80%
SetActive2 = NO
PartitionType2 = PRIMARY
FileSystem2 = NTFS
QuickFormat2 = YES

Many readers of Linux newsgroups filter out crossposts to windows and
advocacy newsgroups due to high troll content. If you need a Linux
question answered, I suggest you ask in a Linux newsgroup and do not
crosspost it to windows or advocacy newsgroups.

Your behavior marks you for what your are. The only horrible sort of
person who tells another to perform a search without specifying the
terms and exactness of the search is... *a politician*. And I'm damn
well not voting for you! BTW, did you know that you should have
capitalized the 'L' in "linuxfucktards", it's the beginning of a sentence.

I don't think you know what you are talking about. You should relax a bit
more in life. You sound like someone who wants to be unhappy.

It has nothing to do with Linux. I'm not interested in arguing about
Linux. I don't care what kind of OS you use.
