Windows 7 unattend tool...on XP

[psikobare]

Hello everyone

i have come here in the hope you could help me, since you seem to know quite well the thing

i am currently using XP pro x86, and decided it's quite time for me to move forward

at first i wanted to wait for SP1, so i'm sure the product is stable and everything, but it seems seven SP1 will just be a big update package (a long time ago MS talked about the use of the virtualization thingy without the need of a state of the art processor, didn't they? i wonder what happen to that)

Since i have a few holidays, i decided i would use that time to prepare this

i naturally went to build a custom seven from my own seven DVD

i tried both rt7lite and 7customizer but the thing is.... you can only run it on seven...... oh the sweet irony :'( (yeah i know, you can run it on vista, but for the sake of the joke, i omitted this)

So here i am asking

is there a way to create a custom DVD of seven 64bits from XP 32bits??

what i have:

my windows 7 pro x64 from msdnaa

a computer with win xp pro x86

what i want to do:

automatized installation (cdkey,etc...)

integrating updates(!)

integrating some drivers

install from USB

maybe tweaking some stuff, removing useless s***s

automatized installation of some software? (i'm thinking kaspersky so i can then download everything i need, but if i have to install it by myself from a folder on the pendrive, it probably won't kill me)

my second question, can i use the MS seven USB DVD tool to make a bootable seven from the iso i will generate with a customizer software, or will it f*** things up?

cheers

Not a snowballs chance in hell...

To clarify:

The 64 os commonly cannot be mounted and customized on a 32 bit OS.

Not only that but the tools we all use nowadays are relying on components built into win7 (+ vista ofcourse but I am skipping that joke too)

Probably best bet is install 7 temporarily without activating and you will have 30 day's to customize an installation dvd.

Use product.ini in dvd\sources folder and it lists temp keys

Yes, you can!

You need to install WAIK for Windows 7 on your computer wtih Windows XP!

The problem is you can't test your ISO file on a virtual machine, because it's needed OS 64-bits:

My test here:

7Customizer
