Help needed for re-partitioning the Classmate Netbook

[d100n]

ok, I tried re-imaging it again just like Mr. Ross said using the, "Procedure for recovering unused space on the 2010/2011 Classmate hard drive," and the, "How to Set Up Your 2011 Driver Station."

My steps: 1.a. Rename AUTOINSTALL.CMD to AUTOINSTALL.CMD.BAK
b. Rename DISKPARTSCRIPT.TXT to DISKPARTSCRIPT.TXT.BAK
2. Turn off netbook, plug USB Restoration Key
3. Turn on, pres F11 repeadetly when the "2GO" logo appears
4. A screen appears with the choices
"HDDM-SanDisk pSSd 16GB
USB: USB DISK
USB: Generic- Multi Card
Network: Realtek Boot Agent"
5. I move and choose "USB: Generic- Multi Card" because that's what it says to do in, "How to Set Up Your 2011 Driver Station."
6. Screen shows the Windows 7 green loading bar, then it turns black.
7.Returns to log in screen.
8. I check the memory space- still the same as I left it.
9. Still confused because I don't understand

Any help is helpful. haha

Did you download the new replacement AUTOINSTALL.CMD and DISKPARTSCRIPT.TXT files and copy them to the USB key between your steps 1 and 2?

Yes i did. What I did was that I extracted that zip file from another computer, renamed them then copied them onto the restoration key. From the restoration key I saved the files onto the desktop of the net book. Then I resume with step 2. Thanks for responding, by the way.

the classmate HD isn't very big in the 1st place, i would recommend getting another laptop for development. we do it that way. it makes it much easier to see what you doing and reduces compile time. you can use it the same way as the classmate, but faster and easier.

other than that, i don't know what will solve the issue.
