Setup stops with error "Setup cannot copy file: xxx.xxx".

Making a multi-boot AIO dvd according to the guide@ flyakite.msfn.org, using unattended install.

I get to Windows Setup stage, then I format disk, Windows begins to copy files.

Setup stops with error "Setup cannot copy file: xxxx.xxx".

About 35 files cannot be copied.

I find some of the files in I386 source compressed like "nhelper.ex_, iastor.sy_".

Some files are also found in $WIN_NT$.~LS source. Install source was "nlited" if that makes a difference.

The original source installs fine (with no errors) from regular dvd install method.

Boot files folder (TOW1) is present with winnt.sif & edited setupldr.bin.

I have tried to remake from scratch several times with the same result. Have googled without good results. Searched thru other guides & this forum to see what I am missing.

Any help much appreciated.

Thanks for your help. The link was useful for future.

I rebuilt several times from beginning. I was getting several different errors at the same point in windows setup, cannot copy files, windows could not format the drive, could not verify drive blah blah.

I gave it up for a few days. I rebuilt again its perfect. I still cannot verify what caused my problems. I suspect the cd\dvd drive not working correctly.
