Integrated Programs

[marc180]

Hey everybody, new to vlite i'm sure this question has been asked about a million time so i guess mine is going to be a million and on lol. I wanted to know if there's anyway of integrating programs into the unattended version of vista. Stuff like Firefox and flash player so i don't have to do it everytime i install it ( gets really annoying ) any help would be great.

Thanks in advance

Yes you most definately can but not with vlite alone. You will need microsoft Windows Automated Installation Kit.

I always use vlite to do the dirty work and configure my apps with WAIK.

If you want to *preinstall* apps into a vista WIM, consider using MDT 2008 (Update 1) and the WAIK to set up, install, create, and then .ISO the image itself. If you want a disc that installs apps after Vista, you can use vLite or the WAIK. MDT 2008 can actually do this as well, so it's also an option.

I wasn't aware that vlite could make a disk that installs apps after vista.

It is my understanding that vlitw does not have the capability to preinstall applications.

You are correct, I was thinking of something else. Haven't used vLite in awhile now, more of an nLite user way back when. I use MDT for everything nowadays.

Is the runonceex not sufficient, I abuse that cmd, have like 25 apps that load from mine including firefox and flash10? not exactly "a disk after install" but queued up nonetheless.
