SYMPTOMS

When you use NoWaitAfterTextMode = 0 in the [Unattend] section of your Unattend.txt file to stop the installation after text mode, the installation may not stop. Create a 500 MB partition and place the entry ExtendOEMPartition = 1 in the Unattend.txt file.

143473 Unattended Setup Stops Unexpectedly


CAUSE

This happens when the Unattend.txt file contains the entry:

[unattend]
FileSystem = ConvertNTFS
                


This entry causes the computer to restart in order to complete the conversion of the file system to NTFS.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 4.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
