The reason it wasn't working for the original thread starter was becuase WINNT.SIF does not have a variable %cdrom%. the wpi.cmd creates one becuase it can run that search tool. Therefore everything run from WINNT.SIF has to be copied to the hard drive somewhere, and then if it's a script, it can find stuff on the cd, which is how the solution works. Just posting this hear to un-confuse people as to why it says it cannot find %cdrom%... instead of saying a drive letter.

isn't the problem here that in winnt.sif there is no var %cdrom%, so it does not know what to do unless the files are copied to the hard drive. when you put it in system32, that is copied to hard drive so the guirunonce thing will work.
