Kiki Burgh Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 (edited) hi!would there be a way via HFSLIP (svcpack or runonce) to install the recovery console?i always have to execute it via run once the OS has completed it's install:x:\i386\winnt32.exe /cmdcons i would love to have this executed regardless of the drive letter of optical drive so i could use the installer in other pcs as well.your assistance would be really appreciated.

Tomcat76 Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 At this point, you can maybe manually edit HFSLIP.CMD though I don't know if it'll work that early.Insert the following:%HFSLIP%\winnt32.exe /cmdcons /unattendsomewhere between the line with D E F... and the line with EXIT.

Yzöwl Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 (edited) What about calling this recon.cmd@START "" /W %~d0\I386\WINNT32 /CMDCONS /UNATTENDand putting it in \HFSVPK I was under the impression that the command doesn't work before normal setup has finished so I have no idea whether this will work.

Kiki Burgh Posted June 9, 2006 Author Share Posted June 9, 2006 hi! i just want to report that i believe installing recovery console was a success ... i saw it install (just like the normal way when doing it after successful OS installation) at T-13 ... the option for recovery console during boot is already there ... accessing recovery console & trying out some commands were successful too ...i tried recon.cmd 1st since it would be easier to take out in case... i modified it a bit by though by making the "\winnt32" portion to "\winnt32.exe" ... please advice though if not necessaryi was kinda apprehensive about meddling w/ HFSLIP.cmd as i might insert the line incorrectly ... he! he! really ... thanks much Tomcat & Yzöwl!

Tomcat76 Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 If it works at T-13 then I'll add it... It will be an option in HFANSWER.INI.It doesn't matter whether you use "winnt32" or "winnt32.exe"; the right file will be found... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
