Unattend File Parameters

[sarav2k]

Hi all,

I would like to know whether we can change the paritition size of c drive from 2 GB to 4Gb while installing using the Unattend file?

By default it creates 2Gb and installs the OS on that.

I hope there should be some parameter\key in unattend file to change this.
any help is appreciated.

Thanks
Sarav

1.use partition magic after installation to extend the partition size.
2.finish the installation, create an Image, recover an image to all (choose amount in Mb) the Hdd.

Hmm, first time hear , that it creates 2 Gb... maybe when I did it by myself ,just didn't payed attention....

check this site out, in the section Description of Unattend.txt File Parameters . Find where it says ExtendOemPartition in Bold.It might help you out.

Thanks Victor & Koquito...

Victor's first idea sounds good for me...Will that work with both HDD(SCSI\IDE) and all brands of HDD?

Koquito...yes you are right...I rememberd now....I have used this key but It didn't work that time....anyway I will try once again and let you know....

Thanks once again...

Koquito.....I refered Extendoempartition key....
It involves setting the bios drive translation to 'enabled'. We didn't do this when we tried last time..Now I got it. Thanks.
