[$OEM$ - folder copy]

The folder that maps to user profiles is $Docs--might save you a few moments of cleanup.

Thanks, Got it, one problem with OEMPreInstall = Yes, that means F6 will be un-usuable?

wouldnt' that create some problems if mass deployement is used with this cd/dvd ?

[Need Help with Extra Quotes]

Simple answer…

The registry data, (indicated by the /D switch), should be sat inside double quotes i.e.

• /D "your data in here"
  

Any double quotes needed within this data is simply prefixed with a backslash as an escape character, (\").

"C:\MsnMsgs75.msi IAGREE=\"Yes\" ADDEXPLORERTOOLBAR=\"\" SETSEARCHENGINE=\"\" SETHOMEPAGE=\"\" /qb-"

Thanks! that worked great! couldnt' believe it was so easy..

[SAV 10 Corp Ed Slipstreamed help please]

Some time ago, there was a web posting *and I can't remember where I found it** that described the requirements for slipstreaming the client install of Symantec AntiVirus Corp Ed 10 (10.0.2. but it wasn't version specific), and for the life of me, I don't know where I found it. Of course, Symantec's web site is of no help whatsover, and I would love to try this again.

I've had some luck with an unattended MSI installation, however, only with the distribution software, NOT the slipstreamed installation directory.

I was hoping that someone could help me address the following issues...

1) Please point me back to the document that describes the procedure for slipstreaming the SAV installation folder with the different MSP files (3 have been released since 10.0.2.2000)

2) Please help me understand why the slipstreamed installation folder is so much larger than the distribution folder (original distribution: 34MB, slipstreamed: 62MB). New folders were created, and the installation will fail if they're not there. Is there some way to reduce the size of the slipstreamed installation directory to 34MB or thereabouts? The problem is that we've got to do the installations across a WAN, and some of the links are slow.

3) Is there a way to patch the VPHOME share and get the automated installation to work?

3) I had some good luck with this unattended install command line, but the problem is that it doesn't seem to want to work with slipstreamed instalations (but it works well from the unpatched VPHOME share

msiexec.exe /i "\\SAVSERVER\vphome\CLT-INST\WIN32\Symantec Antivirus.msi" /qb!- /l \\SAVSERVER\VPinstall.log\LogFiles\%COMPUTERNAME%.SAV10.log ADDLOCAL=ALL NETWORKTYPE=1 SERVERNAME=SAVSERVER RUNLIVEUPDATE=0 REBOOT=FORCE

Thanks for your time.

Mark

here is what i did.. in runonce cmd installing it from a CDrom

----------------------------------------

REG ADD %KEY%\025 /VE /D "Symantec Antivirus Corporate Edition 10" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\025 /V 1 /D "REGEDIT /S %CDROM%\3rdPartyApps\SAV101TP\PreventStartScan.reg" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\025 /V 2 /D "%CDROM%\3rdPartyApps\SAV101TP\Symantec.msi RUNLIVEUPDATE=0 REBOOT=REALLYSUPPRESS ENABLEAUTOPROTECT=1 ADDLOCAL=SAVMain,SAVUI,SAVHelp,EMailTools /qb" /f

----------------------------------------

and the reg key for prevent scan contains

--------------------------------------

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Intel\LANDesk\VirusProtect6\CurrentVersion\Custom Tasks]

"CreatedUserQuickScan"=dword:00000001

"CopiedDefaultScanOptions"=dword:00000001

--------------------------------------

also if you want to have a newer version of the definition files.. just download the latest definition from symantec, find the definition folder extract the files and then zip it up to be named.. VDefHub.zip

it will load the installation with the newest updates..

[$OEM$ - folder copy]

1. The files goes to (unsure about $Doc ; it may be $Docs) :

CD:\$OEM$\$Doc\All Users\Start Menu\Programs

Don't forget OemPreinstall=Yes in winnt.sif

2. read this page :

EXCELLENT! Thank You very much for the answers!

[$OEM$ - folder copy]

Greetings,

First time posting, read through the guides on how to create unattended installation and application packaging.

I have a couple of questions, hopefully someone could enlighten me.

1. If I wanted to create certain folders in "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs" I would need to create $OEM$ ... $Doc in the Unattended Cd correct?

I know i skipped a few folders..

2. for application packaging, why does the files need to be copied to the harddrive to install? Reading the guide it says to put the applications you want the batch files to run in the "install" folder and during the text mode of the XP installation it will copy it to the %systemroot%/.. Install folder . Couldnt' the script run the install from the CD?

Thanks
