Hey guys-

I am working on developing embedded XP. With embedded xp the rutime image can be copied directly to the Hard Disk after being partitioned and formatted. I'm trying to write batch files to automatically partition, format and then copy the image over the network to the hard disk so that the end user can reload the operating system by just selecting it, and not having to worry about any other options.

Right now however, my batch script pauses when it hits the format C: command, as it probably rightfully should. Unfortunately I don't want it to prompt the user, is there a way to use the format command in such a way or a workaround in order to bypass the confirmation?

Thanks so much!

Mark
