The way that I got round it was to stick a drive into another NT4 machine
format the drive, then put it back and then install.

I know this is a 2k list, but a lot of us out there still must use NT4.  I
need to know if there is some way that I can slipstream in an SP4 cd into an
NT4 Server installation CD.  Here's why:  (and if you can help me out here
too, bonus points)  I have to rebuild a generic black box server with NT4 on
it to support Siebel.  I finally got 2 20G Western Digital drives installed
in it, and they are recognized.  But when I try to install NT4, they come up
as 7.8G drives.  A KB article I found says that SP4 has an updated Atapi.sys
that will allow formatting of large hard drives.  And I *reallllly* need
these larger drives.  So if anyone can help me out, you'll get a virtual
beer.

 

Thanks much,

 

Jennifer
