jdaniel Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Hello,This could be a stupid question but I am learning...I have my winXP Pro modified. I only want to include updates and a few registry tweaks. This part is done.I want/need to keep "OemPreinstall" set to "No" in "winnt.sif".Now, I read that if "OemPreinstall" is set to "No", setup will not look in "$OEM$" folder. In "$OEM$" folder I have "cmdlines.txt" for my registry tweaks. So if I understand correctly it will not be copied/parsed/executed.Now my question is - How to add/run my registry tweaks and keep "OemPreinstall" set to "No" ? Is there a way to copy the files so I can launch them with "GuiRunOnce" for example ?Thanks in advance,OJi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdaniel Posted April 10, 2008 Author Share Posted April 10, 2008 (edited) Thanks for the fast reply.I did not knew that it will be executed either OEMPreinstall is set to NO or Yes. I was reading here and it sais :OemPreinstall=YesThis option is default to No but if you are using the $OEM$ Distribution Folders then it needs to be set to YesI will try it. My mistake.Thanks again,OJi. Edited April 10, 2008 by o_owd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 ohh....No Problem ! Its my pleasure.OemPreinstall=YesThis option is default to No but if you are using the $OEM$ Distribution Folders then it needs to be set to YesThats right but...its mean...you can't perform any task related to OEM Installation such as copying oem vendor files and SCSI driver installion using $OEM$ folder etc...... but cmdlines.txt will work.
