Hey guys I need a script to run Gdisk off a floppy with a certain command at the beginning and then create a partition and format. An automated script basically. Anyone know how to do this? Thanks.

Subject: Norton Gdisk.exe Commands
Use the commands in that post. You can Edit the commands as desired, HHD partitions, size etc.

Then:
Place a Win98 Boot Floppy into the Floppy Drive, then add the Gdisk.exe to the Win98 Boot Floppy. Open Notepad and type the desired Gdisk Commands into it. Close out Notepad and save it to the Win98 Boot Floppy and save it as GDISK.BAT
Next click on the Desktop My Computer Icon, then click on Drove A:\. then find the Autoexec.bat that is within the Win98 Boot Floppy then right click on it and choose edit. Scroll down and find GOTO QUIT.
Just below GOTO QUIT,type in Call gdisk.bat
It should look like this:
GOTO QUIT
Call gdisk.bat
Close out the Autoexec.bat and save the change/edit.
Boot the computer with the Win98 Boot Floppy in the Floppy Drive let it run and it will start Gdisk and run the commands

Hey, I tried everything you said and got most of it working...the only problem is, is that i can't get it to copy the system files to come up to a C: prompt. Any ideas? Thanks.
