WINPE xp install problem

[shiboom]

Hi all,

I've been trying to piece together an unattended xp install using winpe and have had mixed results. I am able to start the setup process using a batch file to create and format the primary partition as well as run the following command:

i386\winnt32.exe /unattend1:unattend.txt /s:i386 /syspart:c: /tempdrive:c: /makelocalsource

Setup gets to the 'preparing installation' point and gives the following error: "setup was unable to build the list of files to be copied."

It gives me this error whether or not I point to the i386 folder on a shared drive or if I copy it down to the c: drive first.

I have also referenced the full path of the i386 folder with the same results.

Any ideas? I'm totally stuck.

Thanks in advance.

Hi All,

I have resolved the issue myself..... turns out I just had a bad i386 folder. I copied a new one over from an xp pro sp2 cd and everything worked fine. Now if I could only reattach the hair I pulled out trying to figure this thing out...
