arwidmark Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Most people these days are using free deployment solutions like MDT 2010 from Microsoft, to have an engine that automatically updates the unattend.xml on the fly, allowing you to use multiple configurations on a single media. For media based deployment these settings are stored in a separate textfile (customsettings.ini).Other than that, if you copy the unattend.xml file to a writeable location (like X:) before starting setup, you can easily have a script that updates it with the correct values. Then setup will run with your updated answer file.Even when booting on a read-only media you have 32 MB (default, can be increased) ramdisk that can be used for updating the answer file./ Johan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
