Windows XP Pro setup formats drive as e: instead of c:

[sam]

I have installed Windows XP pro sp1 to several machines
that have Zip drives, and setup formats the drive and
installs windows on e: and the zip drive is named c:

Any tips on how I can prevent this from happening?
Also I am using a winnt.sif file for unattended install.

Thanks!

But you cant rename the windows install disk after install
can you?

No, you'll have to start over and delete all partitions, reformat
and reinstall XP.
