How to create a System reserved partition

From what I understand this partition is created by the OS install automatically when there is not active partition on the drive to hold some boot info and other things.

You can actually choose not to have it at installation stage - so I don't see how you can create it and have windows use it.

Check the below steps

•      Go to Computer Management under Administrative Tools in Control Panel and click on Disk Management.
•      Under Disk Management, right click on C drive and click on Shrink Partition.
•      Give a desired size (in MB) and named that partition Backup.
•      Go back to Control Panel and in Backup and Restore under Security click on Create System Image and follow the instructions.

Now whenever you need to reinstall the OS but forgot your CD just go through the Recovery Partition by hitting F8 when boot and hit Advanced Recovery.

The second link put me on the right track. Basically, in the partition task sequence in SCCM I create a standard 100mb (although 300-500mb or more is recommended if you want to put any winpe or the winre in it) primary  partition, flag it as boot, set it it not to not assign drive letter, label it System Reserved and stick a variable "BOOTPART" (saw this somewhere on some forum) in the advanced options of the task. Then I applied the captured system partition and it seems to have worked, as it was showing as "System, boot..". when I checked  it after deployment was finished.

Thanks a lot for your help!
