Does the original disk boot on those systems? Did you set the correct parameters for your boot diske.g. no emulation, the correct number of sectors and the correct address to load the boot image?

I'm getting an error when I 'press any key to boot from cd' that says it can't find NTLDR.
NTLDR should be located in the I386 directory on your CDROM.
If you get that message it means that the system is correctly booting from the CDROM, but cannot locate the NTLDR file. That means it is either not on the CDROM or there is something wrong with the naming.
Make sure that the character set is ISO9660 and not something else. Also, make sure that no ISO file version extensions are being added.

REG is most often used instead of REGEDIT, as you cannot use variables, e.g. %SYSTEMROOT%, in a reg file.
That makes sense. Thanks.

Has anyone an example of a .reg file to add RunOnceEx entries using REGEDIT.EXE instead of adding the registry entries one by one using REG.EXE?

I think you are correct; the current directory for the script seems to be C:\WINNT\. The hotfix is located in the Update (svcpack) directory. But where is it?Your batch file may be next to SVCPACK.INF, but I do not think that is the working directory for SVCPACK, thus it does not recognize your hotfix as an application.Hundreds of unsuspecting XPCREATORS use it dailyBlame me, but I am trying to integrate it into W2K

I have now created a mdac.cmd file in the I386\Update directory and an entry for mdac.cmd in svcpack.inf.
mdac.cmd contains a single entry
Q832483.exe /C:""dahotfix.exe /q /n"" /q:a
and I am getting an error message saying that Q832483 is not recognized as an external command. Any idaes? Q832483.exe is also located in the I386\Update.

I have the following command in the cmdlines.txt file:
"%systemdrive%\Install\HotFixes\KB839643.EXE /Q /O /N /Z"
and I am getting the following error
Setup was unable to invoke external program %systemdrive%\Install\HotFixes\KB839643.EXE /Q /O /N /Z because of the following error:CreateProcess returned error 2 (2).
Any suggestions?

Is this the same executable as KB839643.EXE?Q839643.EXE /Q /O /N /ZQ839643.catdplayx.dl_
dpwsockx.dl_
Where can I find these files?
Edit: Ok, I think I found them by extracting them from the hotfix executable, but I am still not sure what to do with them

Sorry, my mistake! I ment svcpack.inf. MDAC does not get installed with this line svcpack.inf.

I am currently using svcpack.inf to install my hotfixes, cmdlines.txt setup my RunOnce, and RunOnce to install my applications.
Is there any difference in what gets installed when? E.g. could I put everything in svcpack.inf or could I put everything in RunOnce to take two extremes?

Try removing the ECHO OFF, etc and put a PAUSE at the end of your batch file to help debugging the problem.
