I managed to achieve my goal. I decided that I'll let user to manually install Office via desktop shortcut. I created this directory structure into SOURCES folder: $OEM$\$1\Users\Public\Desktop\Install Office 2010.lnk (shortcut to C:\Office 2010\setup.exe) $OEM$\$1\Office 2010 (Office 2010 installation files) Burned ISO to a new DVD and it works! But thanks anyway for everyone!

OK, I guess I'll just copy the Office install files to drive C and place shortcut onto desktop. But is there any way how to make a shortcut onto Windows desktop with autounattend.xml file?

Well, I don't want to use WIM imaging. I just want to copy Office 2010 folder onto unmodified Windows 7 installation disc and add also autounattend.xml to the DVD root. The question is, how should I define the Office 2010 installation command in autounattend.xml so it would work in any scenario?

OK, but how do I define the installation path? My Office install files are on the same DVD as the Windows install files. I cannot always use drive "D:\" because when I use the media on a computer with 2 HDD-s it won't work. So how to define an optical drive so it will work in any case?

I've been looking into "Unattended Windows Setup Reference for Windows 7", but haven't figured it out how to install my custom applications during Windows installation. I want to copy Office 2010 installation (OFFICE14 folder) onto Windows 7 installation DVD and if someone installs Windows from this DVD then Office 2010 would be installed also in background. I know I have to use silent install switch, but how to exactly implement it in the unattended XML file? Help?
