Guide Updated Oct/21/2004
added the ability to make the iso name same as the folder - Credits goto
hotdogee for the idea!
Thanks to GreenMachine For the Idea (as shown here)
Added the ability to have iso's with spaces mounted
Fixed a Typo (nothing major)

i decided to do this because i was bored

lets begin:

start daemon tools .exe
goto start > run > type: %tmp% [press ENTER]
copy the .msi to your desktop for now

next copy this into a .txt file & rename it .inf

CODE

[Version]
Signature=$CHICAGO$

[DefaultInstall]
AddReg = CDImage
AddReg = Mount
DelReg = Daemon

[CDImage]
HKCR,"Folder\shell\MakeBootISO\command",,,"CDIMAGE.EXE -LBootable -YD -N -H -X -B%11%\xpBoot.img -OCI -M -D %here% %target%"
HKCR,"Folder\shell\MakeDataISO\command",,,"CDIMAGE.EXE -LDATA -YD -N -H -X -O -M -D %here% %target%"

[Mount]
HKCR,".ISO",,,"ISO_Image"
HKCR,".CUE",,,"ISO_Image"
HKCR,".CCD",,,"ISO_Image"
HKCR,".BIN",,,"ISO_Image"
HKCR,"ISO_Image\Shell\Mount\Command",,,"%16422%\D-Tools\daemon.exe" -mount 0",""%1"

[Daemon]
HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run","DAEMON Tools-1033"

[Strings]
here = """%1"""
target = """%1.iso"""

REQUIREMENTS for the .inf file to work
CDIMAGE.exe
xpboot.img
both must be placed in the System32 directory
(to do that i suggest placing them in $OEM$\$$\System32 so they are automatically copied)
(both files come in CD Image Pro available on http://unattended.msfn.org )

heres a brief explanation about the above..
[CDImage]
when u rightclick a folder you will have 2 context menu (right click menu) entries.. MakeDataISO & MakeBootISO
both of the images will place an entry in %systemdrive% (usually C:\) called either DataISO or BootISO (previous entries will be overwritten)

[mount]
when u rightclick an image file (.iso;.bin;.cue;.ccd) u will have an option to Mount your iso in a virtual drive (by default this uses 1 virtual drive)

[Daemon]
removes daemon tools from starting up auto.. we dont need the tray icon because we're making this instead

Note: your language code maybe different then 1033 so check the startup entry 2 make sure

[strings]
i like to use strings as much as possible to keep the code neat & this was the only way i could get the %1 to work

next u need DaemonScript.exe
(extract the .msi file same as u did for daemontools, name it daemonscript.msi)
next.. u can either make this script inside daemonscript or use the 1 i have here..

CODE

Version|1.5.3|2|
DeviceCount|1|

change DeviceCount|1| from 1-4 depending on the # of virtual drives u want..
save it as DaemonDriveInstall.DaemonScript (name it anything u want just make sure it ends in .daemonscript)

next.. place
DaemonScript.msi
DaemonTools.msi
DaemonDriveInstall.DaemonScript
DaemonTools.inf
all in the same directory $OEM$\$1\Install\Apps\DaemonTools

in your .cmd/.bat file place the following

CODE

start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\Apps\DaemonTools.msi /qn Reboot=ReallySuppress
start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\Apps\Daemonscript.msi /qn Reboot=ReallySuppress
start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\Apps\DaemonDriveInstall.DaemonScript
rundll32 setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 128 %systemdrive%\Install\Apps\Daemontools\DaemonTools.inf

done! hope this is of some help to someone

EDIT: any questions,comments,concerns ask away
EDIT2: fixed a bug where names with spaces wouldnt make iso

by this you mean the setup file for daemon tools right?

and if I don't want the cdimage part I can just edit that out right?

I read your other thread. You moved fast in configuring DT!

What I mean is: How do I automount an ISO in one of the virtual drives I create with your method?

MCT

Aug 8 2004, 05:06 PM

ok mazin (& anyone else who wants it) ive got it

Add this to the previous inf

CODE

[AutoMount]
HKCR,"ISO_Image\Shell\AutoMount ON\Command",,,"%11%\rundll32 setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 128 %10%\RegTweaks\AutoMount.inf"
HKCR,"ISO_Image\Shell\AutoMount OFF\Command",,,"%11%\rundll32 setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultUnInstall 128 %10%\RegTweaks\AutoMount.inf"

under defaultInstall of the previous inf add
AddReg = AutoMount

next.. make a new inf & put this in it

CODE

[VERSION]

Thanks, MCT, for your time. One more question: Don't I have to define a path and name for the ISO file I want to automount?

well u may try this..

-mount 0,c:\filename.iso

EDIT: just copy the mount part from the inf & the amountmount_on section & combined them in 1 inf it should work

Anyone else having your system prompt saying it found new hardware after you install D-Tools? Kinda messes up the unattendedness of the install.

Would like all the commands under the one heading "Installing Daemon Tools"

and also maybe uninstall the DaemonScript at the same time...

any help would be great thx guys

Hello and thanks for this nice tip.
I followed all the steps you mentioned and got my daemontools.msi from dt346.exe and daemonscripts.msi.
As i wasn't interested by the Makeiso option, i made the following daemontools.inf:

CODE

[Version]
Signature=$CHICAGO$

[DefaultInstall]
AddReg = Mount
DelReg = Daemon

[Mount]
HKCR,".ISO",,,"ISO_Image"
HKCR,".CUE",,,"ISO_Image"
HKCR,".CCD",,,"ISO_Image"
HKCR,".BIN",,,"ISO_Image"
HKCR,"ISO_Image\Shell\Mount\Command",,,%16422%\D-Tools\"daemon.exe -mount 0,%1

[Daemon]
HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run","DAEMON Tools-1033"

[Strings]
here = """%1"""

I copied the code you've given into a txt file and renamed this txt file: DaemonDriveInstall.DaemonScript

CODE

Version|1.5.3|2|
DeviceCount|1|

Finally i made the following batch for tetsting purpose: test.bat

CODE

start /wait c:\download\DaemonTools.msi /qn
start /wait c:\download\Daemonscript.msi /qn
start /wait c:\download\DaemonDriveInstall.DaemonScript
rundll32 setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 128 c:\download\DaemonTools.inf

I moved Daemontools.msi, Daemonscript.msi, Daemondriveinstall.daemonscript, daemmontools.inf and test.bat under my c:\download folder.
When i started my batch, the installation of daemonttools.msi was done correctly. But when it came to the daemonscripts.msi i get a message saying the installation couldn't finish because my PC was shutting down...and it defiinitly was: in the next second i experienced a fast reboot.
After this reboot, Daemontools is corerctly installed (but require a new reboot) but that's it: the daemontools tray icon is running, no mountiso is available when right ccking an *.iso files and so on...

Well, i don't know where the is the problem, but there is definitly something preventing me from using the *.inf file . Any help would be greatly appreciated

EDIT:Installing the daemontools.inf with a right click work perfectly. Would that mean i made the same error than Cagliostro and forgetting the"." after "rundll32 setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 128" ?
But in my case, i mentioned the complete path to my files in my batch (what Cagliostro haven't done). Does that mean this "." should also be added when using the %systemdrive% ?

How about an Un-Mount option?

MCT

Aug 25 2004, 07:14 PM

@war59312

u dont need an unmount option (thats why i never included 1 in the inf)
just right click the cd drive & select "eject"

but if u wanna unmount, u can use -unmount 0

i think is the syntax, look on daemontools site if it isnt

war59312

Aug 26 2004, 07:02 PM

oh ok guess it messed up cause it was not working but yea working now....

I would click eject but it would do nothing...

right clicked on inf file and install..

so woring fine now..thanks...

Well crap it stoped working after installing ISo Buster.

It mounts but eject does nothing again.

Nice post a little confusing at first ... on what to name things...

BUt I do recommend this to anyone that uses Daemon Tools ..

Nice to have the right click options then you don't have to start this select that ...

just right click and go...

I will start a new thread for my next questioned

Yeah I know just saying that if you launch Daemon Tools its still mounted. Guess its a bug.

Aug 29 2004, 12:56 AM

could this be modified so it mounts an image after double clicking on it? Sorta how MountDaemon works?

MCT

Aug 29 2004, 01:02 AM

u can double click it and have it work IF u have the "mount" option as your FIRST entry via right click

& usually that means not having a program associated with .iso files (other then this method on first page)

Sep 16 2004, 01:24 PM

Has anything changed on this method (which I love btw, thanks!) with 3.47? I have 2 issues: first, when I run Daemonscript.msi with either the /qb or /qn switch fromt start.cmd it installs into C:, yet when I run it manually it installs into \Program Files\ as it should.

Second, my rundll32 line does all sorts of crazy stuff so I must be doing something wrong. It will usually load another installer than already ran from the start.cmd, such as my ATI Remote Wonder or Logitech Setpoint software. Thanks for any help!

hi..

the stuff works with the new version too.. there isnt anything new besides bug fixes in the new version i believe

can u post the daemontools.inf plz.. some ppl alter it, 2 cut out stuff they dont want.. so u could have done that & messed a line or something?

& im honestly not sure why daemonscript is doing that.. its something with the installer i believe.. u could try 4 now a temp solution 2 copy daemon script files 2 the appropriate directories

MCT

Sep 16 2004, 04:27 PM

yes, it looks like the exact same 1 as i have

but im not sure why your getting that error :S try this

CODE

start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\DaemonTools\DaemonTools.msi /qn REBOOT="ReallySuppress"
start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\DaemonTools\Daemonscript.msi /qb
start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\DaemonTools\DaemonDriveInstall.DaemonScript
start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\DaemonTools\DT.exe

put this into an autoit script..

Run("rundll32 setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 128 .\DaemonTools.inf")

& compile it & name it DT.exe thats the only other thing i can think of.. put it in same folder as daemontools.inf

& if u dont know how 2 do this.. download autoit , open notepad.. place the above command into it.. name it DT.au3 & compile that .au3 file using autoit compiler, u can right click & choose compile script

I cannot extract daemonscript.msi from the last version available on daemon tools. Any ideas how to get it?

MCT

Sep 22 2004, 11:28 PM

it works fine here..

start the installer dont close the installer, goto run type %tmp% then get the msi file.. its not hard

keul

Sep 23 2004, 02:28 AM

This may solve issues :

1- If daemonscript installs to C:\, change the installation command to :

CODE

start /wait .\Daemonscript.msi /qn TARGETDIR="%ProgramFiles%\D-Tools"

It will then install to Daemon Tools folder.

2- I don't know if it was mentionned before, but you may encounter an issue with DaemonDriveInstall.DaemonScript file (telling that parameters on line 2 are incorrect). You need to have a blank line after DeviceCount|1| (the script parser needs it). So if your script is

CODE

Version|1.5.4|2|
DeviceCount|1|

file length should be 34 bytes and not 32.

I hope this helps...
