Hi Tomcat, I've tested the latest version of the script, but there is one bug (maybe, I hope it's a bug or I'll become crazy ). I have slipstreamed Net packages version 1.1 and 2.0 in HFSVCPACK, and 3.0 in HFGUIRUNONCE. When Windows installation comes to T-13, it installs all the net packages, instead of installing version 3.0 at first logon. Is it only a my problem or someone else has this issue? This issue isn't present in version hfslip-70129b

http://download.windowsupdate.com/v6/windo...Agent20-x86.exe Is the same as before.

I have had the same issue this afternoon when I have tried the latest version of hfslip

Have you putted some files in HFEXPERT directory? If yes, in their name there are spaces?

I have 2 other requests about hfslip, can you add support, in GuiRunOnce mode, for .cmd files? Second request, can you add the support for copy files, as $OEM$ do? I mean if I put files in $1 directory, they'll go to %SystemDrive%, if I put files in $$ directory, they'll go to %SystemRoot% directory. I know that in HFEXPERT directory of HFSLIP, there are WIN and PROGRAMFILES directory, but if I put one file in WIN, and this file has spaces in his name, Windows installation doesn't start, because TXTSETUP.SIF or DOSNET.INF doesn't accept files with spaces in their name. EDIT: Tomcat I have found where the error messages are shown. The first message (The system cannot find the file specified.) is related to KB902845 update. I don't know why this message is shown, because, when extract with hfslip script, there are 2 files (setupldr.bin and setupldr.exe), and the same result is if I extract that hotfix manually... The second message (The system cannot find the file 'DIR/B/A-D.)is after the copy of .cat files and before the driver.cab is extracted. The third message (File Not Found) is when the script process the HFEXPERT directory, so I think it displays the error message because HFEXPERT/WIN or HFEXPERT/PROGRAMFILES is empty. I have posted the image, so you can understand better

And if people want to create a complete installer they can use "normally"? Maybe is better to underline in instructions that this merged installer can't be installed at T-13 This has been the case since .NET 3.0 is supported and it's intentional. You think it should be changed? I think that if the option of .ini file is yes, the script must do what I want to do... maybe...

Tomcat you should remove the option of MERGE_FRAMEWORKS=13 from this script EDIT: Found a bug in the latest script, if I set MERGE_FRAMEWORKS=12, and I put files for all version of Net framework, silent installer for version 3.0 isn't created. In .ini file PROCESS_DNF3 is YES

Ok, I'll run another session of test EDIT: Another question about the script: there is a way to "stamp" the output messages when the script is working? I have used this dos command "hfslip-701261.cmd > error.txt", but the errors are shown on command prompt windows and the other messages are write in error.txt file I have discovered that if I write the istruction above, I have 3 error message in command prompt, but I don't know when this errors are shown. The errors are: -Impossible to find that specific file. -Impossible to find 'DIR/B/A-D file -File not found Maybe the second is easy to find, but the others... urgh...

Hi Tomcat, I have tested once your new version of the script... I have only one question for my curiosity. In the other topic (net framework topic) I have asked you to support RunOnce in HFSLIP (Thanks a lot)... I have tried to install Net Framework 1.1 and 2.0 with SVCPACK method, net package 3.0 with GuiRunOnce. It installs, but Event Viewer doesn't show anything about framework 3.0 installation. There are entries for net framework 1.1, for net framework 2.0, but for the 3.0 nothing... Do you know why this happen?

I'll pm you, so we can speak italian ok? I teach you how to make an unattended install

I slipstreamed that hotfix and I haven't had any problem. Maybe you have downloaded a wrong one. Redownload it. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...48-4ed2582ebc7c Put this file in HF directory.

Ok For HFSLIP users, can you add a directory like NET for adding 3.0 net framework that can install itself at windows first logon?

Another error is that Webclient service doesn't start anymore with the merged installer. It reports that his current state is not valid 87 and it stops itself. Today I'll try to install the merged installer like the RunOnce.cmd do (in Windows, but automatically with a batch) and I'll tell you if there are some errors. If in this method it hasn't had any error, maybe is better to install Net frameworks in Windows than SVCPACK directory (I tell you as a HFSLIP user) EDIT: Ok I have installed Merged Net pack (in Windows) and everything is installed without error, only some warning are shown in event viewer. These warnings are: -Could not detect IIS installation or IIS is disabled, skipping the Web Host Script Mappings component since it depends upon IIS to function properly. If you believe this message is an error, check your IIS installation to make sure it is installed properly. This is OK, I haven't installed ISS. -Configuration section system.serviceModel does not exist in C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Config\machine.config. -Configuration section system.runtime.serialization does not exist in C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Config\machine.config. -Configuration section system.serviceModel.activation does not exist in C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Config\machine.config. -A configuration entry for BuildProvider System.ServiceModel.Activation.ServiceBuildProvider, System.ServiceModel, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089 does not exist. -All compilation assembly nodes do not exist in System.Web section group. -HttpHandlers node *.svc does not exist in System.Web section group. -HttpModules node ServiceModel does not exist in System.Web section group. -HTTP namespace reservations are not installed. If you know some tests to do, I'll do the tests. Ask if you want to...

I have tried this method and it doesn't work. It installs 2.0 and 3.0 without error, windows cardspace is installed too... but 1.1 net framework doesn't install at all. Now I'll try to merge 1.1 with 3.0. I'll tell you if in this way all works well. EDIT: I have tried with the merge installer and everything is installed well, windows cardspace is installed properly, only 2 errors are shown about Windows Presentation Foundation. These errors are: -Product: Windows Presentation Foundation -- Error 2004. Method SHGetFolderPath failed. HRESULT: 0x80004005 -Product: Windows Presentation Foundation -- Error 2004. Method GetFontCacheDataFolder failed. HRESULT: 0x80004005 Anyway, in other event properties, there is one that show me that Windows Presentation Foundation is installed completely.

Mmmhhh... I simply put the executable files in HFSVCPACK in HFSLIP directory... obviously with HFSLIP, it installs first 1.1 version, then 2.0 then 3.0... Maybe is better to do a modified version of HFSLIP that install first 2.0 version, then 3.0 and then the 1.1 version of net framework...

Yes. The script expects msxml6.msi, not msxml6-KB927977-xxx-x86.exe, as explained in the instructions... Argh Before I'll post the next question I'll read twice this topic... My apologies EDIT: Ok I have tested once again, I have slipstreamed all the net packages into 3 executables (in 3.0 net pack I have removed the 2.0 version binaries)with their language packs. After I have installed Windows, I search in Event Viewer for any kind of error, there are one error about 1.1 net framework and 3 errors about 3.0 net framework (and 3 errors about the part of the language pack of those components). The components that aren't installed properly are: -Windows Communication Foundation -Windows Presentation Foundation -Windows Workflow Foundation + Windows Cardspace isn't installed, but I have told this before

Sorry for my last question... I have read that post of glendir about msxml6 some days ago and I have forgot that reply This is my feedback with the latest update 20060122: I have slipstreamed all the net packages (slipstreamed language packs too), I have put the file msxml6-KB927977-ita-x86.exe in SNM directory (where is the script), and created the net installers (3 executables). I have removed net2.0 from net3.0 package with the option of .ini file. After I have installed Windows, I have run Windows Update, it tells me that KB927977 hotfix isn't installed. I have do something wrong? I'll try now to do the same thing, but without remove net2.0 from net3.0 package. I'll tell you my feedback for this way

Tomcat another question Before you have made this script I have included KB927977 hotfix in HF directory of hfslip, now you have made this script that can include that patch , is better to include it in hfslip directory or to include it in this script? What are the differences?

You must set this variable in WINNT.SIF in I386 directory: [Unattended] OemPreinstall=Yes

Thank you ! I forgot to tell you that in the .ini file has an option that can merge into one executable for 1.1 and 2.0 net framework, you can read that option in the first post of this topic

If you put only one version of a net framework, the output is only an exe file that install that version, if you put, for examples, net 1.1 binaries and net 2.0 binaries, the output of this script will consists of 2 exe installer, one for 1.1 net framework and the other for the 2.0 net framework.

Only 2 questions... why do you integrate net framework 2.0 in the 3.0 net package? I know that the 3.0 net framework is 2.0 net plus some other applications... I think is better (for smaller installer) if you write in the install requirement that "if you want to install 3.0, you MUST install 2.0 net package too". Isn't it better? Another question is: the net framework 3.0 doesn't install windows cardspace or something like it (maybe I don't remember well)? If yes, I haven't any icon of Windows Cardspace in Control Panel.

RyanVM .Net1 should work if you install in that directory, but the .net2 package doesn't install at T-13 Windows Installation... If you search in reply above, you'll find a post from Tomcat that link to me another topic with a script for making a working (upgraded and with the language pack) silent installer.

My problem with XP theme is only a Microsoft Virtual PC problem... Tested with Vmware Server and it hasn't had any problem...

Read this post again and you found the workaround for making "microsoft update" to work
