I have been searching all over and I can't figure out how to integrate the .net framework 1.1 I downloaded from Ryan's site. Right now I've sucessfully created a disc that's removed all the components I don't want, slipstreamed sp2 onto it, added sata, bus, network, and other drivers, and made it unattended. Getting .net onto it is the last piece of the puzzle if somebody could kindly point me to a guide . I hate to ask such seemingly simple questions because I'm sure it's been answered but even when searching using this site's search and searching on google I can't find out how to do it.
