    Unattended install win xp via usb

    in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003

    Use WinBuilder to create a VistaPE project

    Copy the I386 folder from your XP source to it

    learn/create a batchfile to create a partition on your HD (put on usb drive)

    learn/create a batchfile to format and make bootable (bootsect) the partition

    learn/create a batchfile to start winnt32.exe (using unattended file and makelocalsource)

    check out any of the driver tools like DP base or DrvComp

    Installing Winxp via winnt32 under Winpe v2.0 (Vista PE)

    in Windows PE

    Posted · Edited by Radimus

    Well, I couldn't get the nlited source to work.

    I ended up building a WinBuilder VistaPE project

    Copied the entire winxp(slipstreamed with sp3) i386 folder to the USB drive

    created 3 batch files

    * one to diskpart

    * one to format c: and bootsect

    * one to run winnt32 etc

    I'm now looking for an easy way to integrate drivers, I suppose I could do nlite as long as I ONLY integrate drivers, but I'd really prefer a drag and drop (wouldn't we all)

    I'm checking out http://www.msfn.org/board/DrvComp-v20070809-t90020.html (DriverCompressor) with and without DPBase

    Installing Winxp via winnt32 under Winpe v2.0 (Vista PE)

    in Windows PE

    Posted · Edited by Radimus

    I'm having a slight problem with the actual install of XP

    I have an nlited source that I have robocopied to my thumbdrive (actually made 2 nlite xp source files)

    I can boot via thumbdrive into PE2.0

    The diskpart works fine

    the XP setup GUI works fine (Winnt32.exe etc...)

    My problem occurs in the DOS mode when it is copying the files. It complains about a missing "MFPLAT.DLL" at about 60% complete. I have verified that the file exists in the thumbdrive and in the source file folder.

    If I burn the files to a DVD and setup via that disk, there is no error and setup concludes correctly.

    If I skip the file it again errors at "WMDRMSDK.DLL" at 85%. Skip that file, and the GUI setup starts and runs for a while before complaining about un2regmp.exe (or something similar)

    It will complete eventually, but there are many missing shortcuts and missing applications.

    This does NOT occur if booting from a DVD to do a typical unattended XP install.

    I have made 2 deductions about these files:

    1. they are not compressed in the i386 folder... MFPLAT.DLL not MFPLAT.DL_

    2. They seem to be WMP files that I slipstreamed in via "WMP11 Integrator"

    Anyone come across this?

    I image the full HD, (P1-dell utility partition, p2-winxp)

    The boot failure said something to the effect of "error loading operating system". This dos text appears immediately after BIOS screen goes away.

    This only appears after using winpe2.0 cd to ghost the HD.

    When ghosting from a bart or pe1.5 cd the image applies perfectly.

    It is on the same hardware/same PC that made the image

    BTW... when I use it to apply a ghost image, the image fails to boot.

    Apply the same image from a bartPE or winpe 1.5, the image applies correctly.

    I'm thinking the is a case of "The lords giveth, and the lords taketh away"

    Ive gotten a standard PE.win to boot from CD and thumbdrive, but I'm having difficulty in getting many GUI apps to work like Freecommander and A43, they'll start but will not list drives and such...

    I'm just running them manually via cmd line from a folder on a thumbdrive...

    Anyone got a list of tested apps that will work?

    RunOnceEx runs after Sysprep unexpectedly

    in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003

    Posted

    I have an unattended XP install and unattened apps install using the guides and such here.

    Once the machine has been setup and some minor details touched up, I reboot the machines several times, defrag it several times, and then run SYSPREP on it to ghost the image from a bartPE disk.

    Problem is that after deploying the ghost image to other machines, each imaged PC runs the RUNONCEEX commands again that I had setup in the original automated install.

    I've looked int the reg in the runonce and runonceex keys, I've looked for the bat file that configures those keys, I've looked in the sysprep files, etc... I cannot figure out how those commands are getting stuck back in runonceex... I reboot the machine several times before I sysprep and it never starts up the.

    Confused and Annoyed.

    you need the PCs mac address to send the WOL packet.

    There are ways to harvest them from a MS DHCP server, using DHCPCMD from M$.

    in any event, you will need some skills to collect the MAC, match to IP and hostname.

    I've done it using KiXtart and KiXforms

    Windows XP Updates Downloader

    in Unattended Windows 2000/XP/2003

    Posted

    Not really sure what your point is here - this topic is about a hotfix downloader for XP. My point was that we dont really need another tool to integrate these.... And before anyone says it, if you are in a corporate enviroment and are not using some form of server-based update then have a word with your IT dept....

    On the contrary, I would love to have a CD-ROM with all of the hofixes on it and an accompanying utility that would install all of the ones not already installed. I sometimes get called to an office where things are obviously FUBAR, and to run 20 workstations through a Windows Update routine would just take too long. Sure it would line my pockets pretty nice with the hourly rate I charge, but I don't operate like that. I like to get in and get out with the customer up, running, and smiling as quickly as possible.

    The other point. There TONS of smaller outfits where running WSUS is simply not an option. I simply cringe everytime I enter one of these offices, but there are indeed still a lot of small offices running on an NT4 domain. Or a small outfit that has one single server that does everything (usually SBS) and adding one more thing to the server would not be a great idea.

    I have a kixtart script that I put on a flash drive to apply all hotfixes (XP only) present in a folder that are already not installed.

    put kix32 and this script (install.kix) on the flashdrive

    make a subfolder called winxp and dump all hotfixes there

    create an autorun.inf on the drive to prompt an autorun

    [autorun]  
    Action=Install All Updates 
    Open=kix32.exe .\install.kix

    break on
