  1. a) I can't get KB885835 to slipstream by hand using the /integrate switch. It keeps complaining about an invalid version of Windows, yet I know I have the right version of the hotfix for my version of Windows (SP2). Has anybody else had this trouble?

    b) When I slipstream all the updates by hand using /integrate, on first boot to the windows desktop after a fresh install, I get a message saying something to the effect of "Windows has just finished installing something or other and needs to reboot". When I use any of the slipstream utilities (XPCreate, RyanVM, etc), I don't get this message. Why is this?

    I'm a bit of a n00b when it comes to slipstreaming.

  2. I'm having a problem integrating the NVRAID drivers into a WinXP Slipstream. I've gotten it to work just fine by manually integrating RyanVM's hotfix pack and then adding the drivers, but since his pack is a little behind, I'm now back to using XPCREATE. The problem is that using the exact same method as before, I keep getting an error saying "NVRAID cannot be found" during the textmode portion of setup. It keeps erroring out. This is what I am doing. I am having XPCREATE slipstream all the hotfixes and whatnot. I am then using MAKECAB to compress NVRAID.SYS and NVATABUS.SYS and coping them into the I386\ directory. I am then adding the following code to the end of TXTSETUP.SIF

    [SourceDisksFiles]
    nvatabus.sys = 1,,,,,,3_,4,1
    nvraid.sys = 1,,,,,,3_,4,1

    [HardwareIdsDatabase]
    PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_008E = "nvatabus"
    PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0085 = "nvatabus"
    PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_00D5 = "nvatabus"
    PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_00EE = "nvatabus"
    PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_00E3 = "nvatabus"
    PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_00E5 = "nvatabus"
    PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0035 = "nvatabus"
    PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0036 = "nvatabus"
    PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_003E = "nvatabus"
    PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0053 = "nvatabus"
    PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0054 = "nvatabus"
    PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0055 = "nvatabus"
    GenNvRaidDisk = "nvraid"
    *_NVRAIDBUS = "nvraid"
    *NVRAIDBUS = "nvraid"

    [SCSI.load]
    nvatabus = nvatabus.sys,4
    nvraid = nvraid.sys,4

    [SCSI]
    nvatabus = "NVIDIA NForce Storage Controller"
    nvraid = "NVIDIA RAID CLASS DRIVER"

    From here, I am creating an iso image using

    CDIMAGE -LXPCD -YD -N -H -X -OCI -M -D -Bimage1.bin CDROOT XPCD.ISO

    CDROOT being the root directory where my slipstream install is located. I then burn the ISO using Nero. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Once again, I've gotten it to work using RyanVM's hotfix pack and I'm not changing a thing (WINNT.SIF, directory structure, etc) from one program to the other. Also, I am not putting these files in the FILECD\ folder. I am making my $OEM$\ and all that after the slipstream.

  4. LOL, you weren't ignoring me bud, I saw your post and got your script and am most grateful. Keep up the excellent work

    RoyalBox, I was thinking about your dilema about updating DOSNET.INF. Correct me if I'm mistaken, but in your current build of your script, you update DOSNET.INF in the \etc. directory before you copy it to the i386 directory. Why don't you copy it first, then update the DOSNET.INF in the i386 directory. That way, if somebody wants to add a hotfix, you have a fresh DOSNET.INF sitting in the \etc directory and you don't even have to bother searching through it to see what's been added already. You can just add everything, and there will be no worries about having multiple references to the same hotfix. Just my 2 cents

  5. I just reread my last post and realized that it sounded awefully abrupt. I apologize if it came across that way. My brain is so fried from coding Java for the past 12 hours. Anywho, I tried this as well

    if not exist etc\sp1\*.* goto _svcinf

    and it was ignored as you said. I appreciate you taking time to come up with a solution. Your script has definately made slipstreaming approachable for us n00bs (like myself)
