For a Lenovo that has several OEM recovery / system partitions, I want to preserve the non-OS partitions. To do so, I configured the Install Operating System step in the relevant task sequence to target a specific disk (0) and partition (5). The installation step targets the correct disk, but targets partition 6 instead of partition 5. Partition 6 is about 4GB, so the install attempt exhausts available space on that partition and fails. DISKPART lists the desired/correct target partition as "partition 5". The problem shouldn't be a matter of zero-based vs one-based indexing. Both MDT and DISKPART partition indexes begin at 1.
I'll probably try changing the task sequence to target disk 0, partition 4, but that shouldn't be necessary. Can you explain what I'm missing?
Thank you!
