O.K, this my situation.. I have edited winnt.sif and winnt.bat so that its fullunattended, but when i go test it with VMware4.0 the first part goes fine.. partitioning, it copies files and the $oem$ map. Then there comes a reboot, what is normal. But after this reboot it doesnt come up with the GUI mode.. I guess the installation process doesnt know where he stored thoose copied files somehow...?? or, VMware has a misconfig...?? If I need to post my winnt.sif, No Problem Thx!!
