I'm testing my unattended CD at the moment, but I'm having problems with my profiles.

My winnt.sif sets the user profiles directories like this.

[GuiUnattended]
ProfilesDir="D:\Documents and Settings\"

BUT, Virtual PC doesn't seem to recognise this disk, and when I install it hangs when applying user settings saying,

Quote

"Windows Cannot create a temporary profile directory. This may be caused by insufficient security rights. If this problem persists, contact your network administrator."

Is there a way to make Virtual PC have a D: drive available for the "Documents and Settings" ?

TIA

Is this what's causing my trouble?

EDIT: New test with "ProfilesDir" set to C: confirmed this is the causie of all my troubles!

Hi Bebbetufs,
the way is the same as in a real machine.
1. Create to Partitions with a tool (not windows textmode setup)
2. Format them with FAT32 or NTFS

You need Drive Letter D:, so you have to make the following parttitions, to get sure that the secon is Drive D:, take a hdd and make to primary partitions. if you do so, the second primary partition will get the drive letter D:.

Take care whenn you use profilesdir on another drive then the systemdrive, it have to exist and must be allready formatted. remove any other hdd from connetor, to get sure you don't loose the path!

greez, Sie Tjin Kian
