Octopuss Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Just because MS claims it's deprecated (whatever that means, something like no longer used?) doesn't mean it doesn't work. It does, and it does the job well enough. I am sticking with it, unless there is another way around it (and NO, I do not want to create any temp account just because MS thinks it's THE way to install the system) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myselfidem Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 You are confusing: SkipMachine and SkipUser !!!! Feel free to use it if you want and you will have trouble and your file will not be fully unattended!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Octopuss Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 (edited) The trouble is you have to use both to skip the oobe screen I tried....The way I do it is unattended enough! I don't need to click once. Edited August 15, 2011 by TheWalrus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Octopuss Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 sometimes things that work in vm will not in an actual installYeah I faced that today at work. The **** setup ended up in BSOD saying something about a .dll file. I couldn't write it down, was in hurry :/ It worked flawlessly in VM! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in the "proper" way - at least in theory according to MS ****, weird error during installation:Windows could not set the offline locale information. Error 0x80000001I gotta dig into the wim_tweak removal batch file I made, there is something stinking there...edit2: oh what an id*** I am:d:\programy\install_wim_tweak.exe /p "e:\mount" /c Microsoft-Windows-LocalPack /rwhen one of the packages in that is US.... *smacks head to a wall* Edited August 15, 2011 by TheWalrus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myselfidem Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 (edited) At this time it's better to not use the new install_wim_tweak.exe... Packages aren't removed properly!! And I see that I can't remove Packages with:Dism /image:Mounted_Folder /remove-package /packagename: (access denied: error: 5)The old one working fine!http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/137765-windows-7-rtm-3264-bit-updated/page__view__findpost__p__933395 Edited August 16, 2011 by myselfidem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Octopuss Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Hm, from what Lego said it is working as intended . I can't tell cause I don't understand how it works too well, but it does SOMETHING in my case - after removal and rebuilding the image the size IS smaller.

Octopuss Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Which settings do I need (in THEORY) if I want to bypass user creation without using skip<whatever>oobe? I found out that if I remove the skipmachineoobe with how my answer file currently looks, I do get prompted for account creation, but after that the local admin properly logs on, and looking in \users folder, there is nothing new (I gave the user "aaa" as the name). So it kind of works, but I need to tweak a few things somewhere. <settings pass="oobeSystem"> <component name="Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="[url="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State"]http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State[/url]" xmlns:xsi="[url="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"]http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance[/url]"> <UserAccounts> <AdministratorPassword> <Value>senator</Value> <PlainText>true</PlainText> </AdministratorPassword> </UserAccounts> <AutoLogon> <Username>Administrator</Username> <LogonCount>2</LogonCount> <Enabled>true</Enabled> <Password> <Value>senator</Value> <PlainText>true</PlainText> </Password> </AutoLogon> <OOBE> <SkipUserOOBE>true</SkipUserOOBE> <HideWirelessSetupInOOBE>true</HideWirelessSetupInOOBE> <ProtectYourPC>1</ProtectYourPC> <NetworkLocation>Work</NetworkLocation> <HideEULAPage>true</HideEULAPage> <SkipMachineOOBE>true</SkipMachineOOBE> </OOBE> <FirstLogonCommands> <SynchronousCommand wcm:action="add"> <Order>1</Order> <CommandLine>cmd /c start /wait msiexec.exe /i %systemdrive%\install\eavbe_nt64_csy.msi /quiet REBOOT="ReallySuppress" ADMINCFG="%systemdrive%\install\dlt_config.xml"</CommandLine> <Description>install NOD</Description> </SynchronousCommand> <SynchronousCommand wcm:action="add"> <Order>2</Order> <CommandLine>cmd /c start /wait msiexec.exe /i %systemdrive%\install\FoxitReader502.0718_enu.msi /quiet INSTALLLOCATION="C:\Program Files" ADDLOCAL="FX_PDFVIEWER,FX_FIREFOXPLUGIN" MAKEDEFAULT=1 VIEW_IN_BROWSER=1 DESKTOP_SHORTCUT=0 STARTMENU_SHORTCUT=1 LAUNCHCHECKDEFAULT=1 SAFEMODE=1</CommandLine> <Description>install Foxit Reader</Description> </SynchronousCommand> <SynchronousCommand wcm:action="add"> <Order>3</Order> <CommandLine>cmd /c start /wait %systemdrive%\install\iview430_setup.exe /silent /desktop=0 /thumbs=0 /group=1 /allusers=1 /assoc=1 /ini="%APPDATA%\Irfanview"</CommandLine> <Description>install IrfanView</Description> </SynchronousCommand> <SynchronousCommand wcm:action="add"> <Order>4</Order> <CommandLine>cmd /c start /wait %systemdrive%\install\IconViewer3.02-Setup-x64.exe /quiet</CommandLine> <Description>install IconViewer</Description> </SynchronousCommand> <SynchronousCommand wcm:action="add"> <Order>5</Order> <CommandLine>cmd /c start /wait msiexec.exe /i "%systemdrive%\install\vpnclient_setup.msi" /quiet</CommandLine> <Description>install Cisco VPN</Description> </SynchronousCommand> </FirstLogonCommands> </component> <component name="Microsoft-Windows-International-Core" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="[url="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State"]http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State[/url]" xmlns:xsi="[url="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"]http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance[/url]"> <InputLocale>0405:00010405; 0409:00020409</InputLocale> <SystemLocale>en-US</SystemLocale> <UILanguageFallback>en-US</UILanguageFallback> <UILanguage>en-US</UILanguage> <UserLocale>cs-CZ</UserLocale> </component> </settings>I was thinking to maybe add timezone and daylight saving settings to Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup.

Octopuss Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Wouldn't trying to create account called administrator result in error? I will try jsut for the hell of it anyway.Still puzzled about the disk configuration. I hate that part. Can't seem to find anything that would hide the bloody screen. I even set willshowui to never with no result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
