After gpt
you need : select disk nnn
then depending on what you want to do
either ------- create partition efi size=100
format fs=fat32 quick label="System" <===== current EFI partitions should be fat32 although possible newer systems allow ntfs
assign letter=S --- if you want to do bcdboot to it
or ---- create partition msr size=128 (std ms reserved partition) don't format it if you want an MSR partition -- if you are creating a complete Native disk for VHDX booting with no existing "classic" windows installs on the HDD.
or create partition primary
format ntfs quick label="Main" (label is optional)
assign letter=G
Now you've got proper access
Cheers

diskpart
select disk 0
clean
convert gpt
Disk 0 is already selected Jimbo
Hello @Kari,
Thanks for the reply, it is appreciated. Excellent Tutorial Kari.
Have you got theDISKPARTcommands forPART 1somewhere or in another Tutorial please?
I really would like to have a go at setting upPART 1withDISKPARTcommands, purely for the experience of it and as a learning curve.
Thanks.
At the end you have:
This should be:Code:diskpart list volume select volume 3 <- The R: [Recovery] Letter remove exit <- At this stage I could copy the CMD Prompt Data and Save it as a .txt file. exit
Also, whenever you do assign letter, the drive letter does not get quotation marks. You have:Code:diskpart select volume R remove select volume S remove exit exit
It should beCode:assign letter="D"Code:asign letter=d
Hello @NavyLCDR,

You need to delete " /Target W:\Windows" from the end of your xcopy command.
"W:\Windows\Systen32\REAgentC /SetReImage /Path R:\Recovery\WinRE /Target W:\Windows" failed.
