Parliament Funkadelic

As a matter of fact I was using the newest base version. I couldn't remember the correct term for what I wanted to find which is probably why I never found it when I searched XD thanks I'll try the new beta (or an older version) and see if one of those works

I don't know why it's not working, maybe I missed a step, but I have made like 3 coasters trying to get the mass storage drivers I need to load from the disc for the F6 method (necessary because I do not have a floppy drive). Now I got it to work before, but I do not remember if there was an additional step or if it is possibly a conflict with the new version of nLite. What I am doing is setting up my nLite then slipstreaming the driver packs in using method 1 (as method 2 only seems to load the drivers after a successful installation). I have tried this in reverse as well (slipstreaming the driver packs then performing the nlite stuff). Both failed to load any of the $OEM$ drivers.

I am looking into integrating programs to be installed with my unattended disc but I am having difficulty finding the information I need. I looked at WPI because I thought it did what I wanted but the "manual" didn't help me at all. Is there a way I can easily take like program setup files (like self installing exes or msis) and integrate them into my disc. So far the programs that I want to integrate are: Firefox Thunderbird Trillian **** NFO Viewer eMule Plus Azureus and iTunes. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Automated tools would be best (if available; why do it the hard way when there's a simple one, ya know?) but I am comfortable working with computers enough that I can manually do it as well.

If I could trim it to 100MB then I could add the programs I want no problem... Hmm... The most I was getting it down to was ~580mb and then with the programs it was just shy of 800mb and wouldn't fit on a single CD. So far that's as low as I have gotten my image file. I haven't tried removing keyboards, but I think I know what one to keep and as for languages, are these files needed for unicode characters like japanese and hebrew? If not then I can remove all of them no problem; I am just worried about japanese characters showing up as boxes instead of the actual script. I take it there is no way to remove the DME though as none of them show up anywhere in Nlite (that WOULD remove a ton of space)

What I remove (What I _CAN_ remove, as nlite doesn't seem to let me remove the Digital Media Enhancements crap (dancer etc)) doesn't shave off a whole lot, and I wanted to add special drivers so I can actually install windows (need the raid drivers on a CD since I do not have a floppy drive) and I wanted to add programs to be installed automatically so I wouldn't have to scour the web getting all my normal apps.

Ok, so I found this unattended windows stuff, and I think it's pretty awesome, I have some ideas (though I could use some help) but I have one major thing to deal with: I backed up all my stuff and reformatted my drives, not taking into account that my MCE2005 install disc was a single DVD (not 2 discs) I forgot to make the disc first, as the computer I reformatted is the one with my DVD burner in it . I am looking for either a way to break this 1 dvd into 2 CDs or get the installation files to just run from an external drive.

I want to re do my desktop completely here. I am using a MCE disc that I got for my laptop, and I want to strip my current partitions, installing Windows on its own partition with program files on another and media and downloads on another (I have 2 500GB SATAs set on RAID0). I can't use Partition Magic because I want to erase the parition it's installed to, so if I made a bootable disc that was fully automated, would I still have the options to manually create partitions (at least 2 durring installation anyway; one for Windows itself and the other for Program Files)?
