striker80 Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 (edited) Thanks to everyone at this website that gave examples of AUTOUNATTEND.XMLs.They helped alot. I decided to help others that may be having a rough time getting started,just like I was. The way I've setup my AUTOUNATTEND.XMLs is to bring up the selection screen,then the partition screen. These choices are necessary to me, for different situations of use.The rest of, (most of), the stuff in the unattended install, can be changed after installation.Here's an example of my AUTOUNATTEND.XML for Vista Ultimate, for 32 bit, (fully working).Use it all, or whatever you need for yours.<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><unattend

selection.This cd key will also work to give Vista 30 days, before you need to activate.If you use a paid for CD key in the answer file, you will get only one selection on that first screen,(in the examples I gave).The one in setup.cfg for Server 2008 gives it 60 days, before you need to activate.This is true for all retail CDs from M.S. and even the trial .iso versions of Server 2008 you candownload from their website.It's probably true for the Service Pack versions, you can buy of Vista from M.S.Price is your legit CD key, and a shipping and handling fee. I don't know for sure though,I haven't got mine, in the mail yet, (I ordered the 32 bit and 64 bit Service Pack versionsof Vista Ultimate, for around $20).Here's an example of the cd key and where to find it:("CD_ROM or, .iso from M.S.") \SOURCES\INF\SETUP.CFG~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[DefaultImageSelection]Value=11111-11111-11111-11111-11111 (real # REMOVED)I removed the number, (use the one M.S. gives everyone!).Removng it should satisfy the "spooks", (FBI wanna bee excrement talkers),that websites like this one are full of. I use the above referenced CD keys to bring up the full selection screenin the unattended installs. The same cd key, (like explained above),works for 32 or 64 bit versions of Vista. The CD key for Server 2008 versionswork for 32 or 64 bit versions of Server 2008 also.So just use the one you have on your CD or .iso, and yours will work,(I'm talking retail and current .iso trial versions here, not RC1, etc., etc.).I enter my paid for cd key for Vista Ultimate, or Server 2008, to activate.The 30 days or 60 days make it easier to setup everything, then activatewhen I feel like it, but before the time is up.

neuropass Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Hi... good job.. i was wondering how can i add my regtweaks to this xml... can yoiu help me...? i'm using the first one... vista ultimatr 32 bit... thank's a lot... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker80 Posted September 25, 2008 Author Share Posted September 25, 2008 That's what I need to do next also. So I don't really have a good answer, (basically I'm saying duh, I don't know). There is a section on it, in the Vista unattended Guide, that is a sticky at the top of this part of the forum. I just glanced through it, and haven't really had the time, to get into it yet, (real life has me pretty busy right now). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neuropass Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 i really don't understand... everybody here seems to be a genius and when you ask something like almost praying, nobody answer you directly. unbelievable... thank's anyway.

nintulus Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Actually; I also wanted to know a simpler way to add regtweak...I think it is best to add it to the $OEM$ folder and put a script like : <settings pass="auditUser"> <component name="Microsoft-Windows-Deployment" processorArchitecture="x86" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <RunSynchronousCommand wcm:action="add"> <Order>10</Order> <Path>cmd /c REGEDIT /S C:\Applications\Regtweaks.reg</Path> <Description>Registry Tweaks</Description> </RunSynchronousCommand>Oradd a RunSynchronous item for each reg tweak we are applying :<RunSynchronousCommand wcm:action="add"> <Credentials> <Domain>mydomain</Domain> <Password>any</Password> <Username>User</Username> </Credentials> <Description>Drive-Letter-First</Description> <Order>1</Order> <Path>reg add ;HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer ; /v ShowDriveLettersFirst /t REG_DWORD /d 00000001 /f</Path> </RunSynchronousCommand>Easier way than Creating an Answer file with WSIM... ???Anyway; I think like in XP, "$OEM$" path is the best option for copying files without using any other commands; and the reg tweaks are already on target system nicely placed for us to execute them whiever way we want... Same thing for application installers... Just place them in OEM folder and execute command and after installation keep or delete...Would like some feedback...
