Two Unattended files work just fine, thanks everybody for an idea. Now the question what Microsoft thinks? What's there guidline on the question?

Hello everyone

I am new "creating" an unattended setup XML file. As you, I came accross the problems discussed in here.

Could one of you elaborate this technique behind "using 2 unattend.xml files" ? Which passes have to be

entered into each of them / how to seperate / split up "the one" file I have now?

Every reply is much appreciated

i had a look on technet, i'll try to do it using the distribution method $oem$ for application

That's exactly what I am looking for atm

I tried the $oem$ method on WinXP (RunOnceEx), worked flawlessly.

However, in Vista, I could not get it to work.

Do you (or anyone else) have a sample Autounattend.xml showing how to deal that (how to install let's say "firefox" during Vista Setup ?) with Vista SP1 ?

It worked for me using the normal Vista RTM, but as y'all found out, with SP1 there's some probs.

Update:

I finally got it to work. Thanks to hannubys and exhaler

Another solution:

Settings to Use for Automating Windows Welcome

In order to not see the all that stuff after the final reboot make sure you have the following in your XML file. This webpage has all the information needed.

Yes this page has more than what the dude's guide has.

Finally I am using the 2 xml method with ver 5.0 or later and I am installing all the software I want in Audituser pass, thanks to all gave me the guidelines where I could interpret this to my own things and my app and do this.

Best Vista install I ever had with SP1, Dreamscene on final desktop and all
