@Quazz what you suggest ? to create a VM with 500 GB and during Windows installation to create partitions C and D ?
you might be correct, because I created another Windows VM, with 50 GB, split the C and D equally at Windows installation, captured with FOG having Image Type - Multiple partitions single disk non-resizable and … when I deployed this image to the client, I had C and D, …
BUT, C:\ had 25Gig and D:\ 25 Gig, and another 450Gig unpartitioned space on HDD

Multi partition Windows image, BIOS mode, with sysprep and unattend.xml
FOG 1.5.7 on Ubuntu 18.04 VM in VMware player.
My case:- created a VM in VMware player with 30GB HDD and installed Windows 10 1803 with single partition
- entered in Audit Mode
- installed Windows ADK for 1803
- installed software (apps, Office, VLC, etc.)
- installed FOG-Client
- created a folder on C:\customize\Win10\ to copy the Windows installation files and a Distribution folder
- import the .wim to WSIM, select the Distribution folder
- created an customize.xml using WSIM, validated, saved in C:\customize\
- run sysprep.exe /generalize /oobe /shutdown /unattend:C:\customize\customize.xml
- create a image in FOG server, having Image Type - Single Disk resizable, Image Manager - Partimage
Now, sysprep runs fine, shuts VM down.
Then I pxe fine, make Full host registration, I capture the image.Now, when I deploy this image to an HP client, with 500 GB HDD, I get only 2 partitions, the System and C.
My question is, what I’ve missed not having the partitioning like in the unattend.xml file ?
below is only the partitioning section from customize.xml
