TranceEnergy Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Whats that CBS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnhc Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 TranceEnergy, I think CBS is Component-Based Servicing. It is the way Vista installs updates and I guess includes slipstreaming. If XP have it, I suppose we could slip IE8. Enjoy, John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TedJBrown Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Again, I succeeded just fine in installing IE8 unattended in XP x64, just using a batch-file that kills itself after auto-logon.Put a .bat in $OEM$\$Docs\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\ on the image.In that .bat put something like this:@ECHO OFFFOR %%I IN (D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %%I:\uniquefileinCDroot.txt (SET SOURCE=%%I:& GOTO DONECD)ECHO. ECHO. Can't find the install CD, can you put it back in please?ECHO. PAUSEFOR %%I IN (D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %%I:\uniquefileinCDroot.txt (SET SOURCE=%%I:& GOTO DONECD):DONECDCLS@ECHO OFFECHO. Voila, installing the monster that is IE8%SOURCE%\Your Folder On CD\IE8-WindowsServer2003-x64-ENU.exe /quiet /update-no /no-default /norestartSHUTDOWN /r /f /t 10 /c "Restarting 64-bit XP with IE8"CLS@ECHO OFFATTRIB -R -A -S -H "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\*"DEL /F /Q "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\desktop.ini"DEL /F /Q "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\*.bat"I want to do this with the final version of IE 8 in Win XP x86. Will this work with the final? Obviously I'd have to change the file names in the .bat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnhc Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 TedJBrown, I install out of a .cmd file run from nLite's RunOnce and it works fine with the RTM. You should need to change nothing, even the name is the same. Have fun, John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccl0 Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 MS is shooting themself in the foot with this. I will never install vista for personal use (again), and i will never use IE8 either if the final is not possible to integrate into xp, x64 xp in my case. Also the RC1 is totally unusable for me.simple solution: firefox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
