Most efficient way to SLipstream Hotfixes?

[pistolpete_1980]

I am used to slipstreaming hotfixes into an xp Cd using Nlite, but I really do not like this becuase you cannot choose which hotfix you want.....

I then saw that you can download all the hotfixes individually in the unattended forum area. Now from looking at this I would think that you would have to add every hotfix individualy into the WPI config, then put them into a hotfix category...

But I was wondering if you guys with more experience do it a different way that is not so involved?

Almost all of us use one of 2 methods nLite or svcpack.ini what do you mean you can't choose which ones you want in nLite? It only integrates the ones you have selected...

Anything besides nLite or hfslip is going to be moderatly to highly involved.

So I guess that doing it this way .... see below... really isnt a good idea.....

prog[pn]=['WindowsXP-KB873339-x86-ENU.exe'];
uid[pn]=['WINDOWSXPKB873339X86ENUEX'];
dflt[pn]=['yes'];
cat[pn]=['Hotfixes'];
forc[pn]=['no'];
cmd1[pn]=['"%wpipath%\\Install\\HotFixes\\WindowsXP-KB873339-x86-ENU.exe" /q /n /z'];
pn++;

prog[pn]=['WindowsXP-KB944653-x86-ENU.exe'];
uid[pn]=['WINDOWSXPKB944653X86ENUEX'];
dflt[pn]=['yes'];
cat[pn]=['Hotfixes'];
forc[pn]=['no'];
cmd1[pn]=['"%wpipath%\\Install\\HotFixes\\WindowsXP-KB944653-x86-ENU.exe" /q /n /z'];
pn++;

This way you can select which hotfixes you want installed? is this a viable solution?

[Kelsenellenelvian]

I would add a description to each one if I was you.... Yeah its a viable solution just gonna be time consuming to setup at first.

**** i really didnt want to do it this way. But i guess this is the only way i can think of where you can actually choose which hotfixes you want.. If anyone knows a better way, please let me know, I really dont wnat to have to do this....
