Are there any free scriptable partition managers for windows that can create an EFI partition? (Identifier 0xEF)
EDIT: It needs to run on Windows XP (BartPE)
EDIT 2: So it seems Intel has a 32-bit utility available for download called diskpart.efi. Does anyone know how to run this?

If you're looking for both free AND scriptable, you wanna use the DiskPart tool, in the MS WAIK toolkit.

get Intel's Diskpart EFI GPT Disk Partitioning Tool
That download looks promising. Has a 32-bit binary that might work. Now I just have to figure out how to run it. The diskpart.efi binary doesn't seem to be executable. – Tobbe – 2009-12-24T13:19:32.967
That link looks great. I'll accept this as the answer, even though I haven't tried it myself. Thanks for helping me. – Tobbe – 2010-03-15T06:51:44.327
The diskpart version included with Windows XP (BartPE) doesn't seem to support the needed commands. Can a working version be obtained from somewhere? – Tobbe – 2009-12-24T11:42:39.087
