For runOnceEX.cmd---- what is the command to have a restart?

thanks for the post- i'll give that a looks-

Thanks for the response - i'll check that out- But in the meantime i'll update you folks- I figured it out- I did some looking around and finally figured it out took a bunch of attempts and testing but I got it- was a fun learning experience. I'm running into one wall though. Here's what i've got so far- i've created the unattended boot cd- integrated the programs that i want installed BUT when i get to the program installation point after the first logon it requires input to install. Is there a way to completely automate the installations of the programs? the programs i am installing are as follows: 7zip .net framework sp1 mozilla thunderbird mozilla firefox cdburnerxp adobe reader 9 Thanks for your help! Cheers, mas294

So i've looked around on my own here- and Creating your RunOnceEx.cmd file seems the way to get these files to install - understand that i even understand the switches. My understanding is that this runonceEX.cmd file contains lines of code that "call" upon an application to be installed. so that being said - 1) where do I put these files within the unattended boot cd ? 2) DO the installation files go on the unattended boot cd? thanks for the help, cheers mas294

I've got the unattended xp install down nlite is a nice tool and i wished i found it before i did the project manually following some directions i found online. BUT i see all these posts about integrating hotfixes and ect. but heres what i'm after- I'd like to run my unattended cd on any computer - and upon start up see programs installed such as mozilla firefox , adobe reader, and office. I'm aware that what i'm asking doesnt address drivers BUT thats okay Thanks any suggestions are welcomed- Cheers-

Hello community- i'm new so just point me to where on the forum this answer resides cause i'm sure i'm not the only one with this problem / question... how do i slipstream the program into the xp installation? Do i get the installation files and add them to the installation disk do my switch commands thing and i'm on my way - sounds too easy - where do i put those installation files - and where do i put the file thats going to contain my install commands? Thanks for your help folks Cheers- mas294
