Hi,
I'm trying to get ready to sysprep/ghost an image we are using in a
small grade school computer lab. This is all Windows XP Professional.
The target computers are all exactly the same - they come out of the
box with a primary partition that is 75G in size.
The clone image will contain the Microsoft Shared Toolkit, which
requires that the primary partition be resized to a smaller size, and
free space left at the end of the drive. For example, my 75G drive
might be resized down to 65G.
Is there *any* way to build a sysprep response file, using commands
to run a script that will give the result of reducing the size of the
primary partition? I read up on DISKPART, but I can't see a way to get
that to do it. I may be (hopefully) missing something.
The alternative is to manually partition all the machines prior to
cloning, but...yuck...
Thanks for any help you can give me!
