manual partitioning

During the install, The MDT during PE does not ask for the customization of Drives i.e. Formatting and Partitioning. If the installed is a Fresh install, MDT by default wipes out all the drives and creates only one partition of all the available HDD space.

I don't want to use diskpart scripts or other staff to automatically repartition disk. The causes are:

  1. Some computers are with 2 disks. What if disk with data will appear as a first disk. All data could be lost.
  2. Some computers are with dual boot.
  3. Second partition with data may appear first. Vary rarely but sometimes system could be on disk D:.
  4. I want to manually backup data from system partition to data partition.

The best option is to add in TS "format and partitioning wizard", and some kind of "explorer" to comfortably backup/copy data. It will be great to use this CD not only for deploying windows but also to recover it.

So what I need is "format and partitioning wizard" with ability to call "file explorer". The question is how to do it? Is it possible to download this wizard and file explorer? And from where? Are there any docs about this procedure?
