bonalymac Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 This is my first attempt to generate an unattended boot cd. I've followed the intructions (as well as I could).I'm getting an error pretty early on, when the install asks for the Windows XP CD into Drive A.I don't even know ehere to start, but I'm guessing its in winnt.sif.The start of the file is as follows.;SetupMgrTag[Data] AutoPartition=0 MsDosInitiated="0" UnattendedInstall="Yes"[unattended] UnattendMode=ProvideDefault OemPreinstall=Yes UnattendSwitch="yes" TargetPath=\WINDOWS FileSystem=*[GuiUnattended] EncryptedAdminPassword=NO OEMSkipRegional=1 TimeZone=85Any suggestions?Coilin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 Is SP1 slipstreamed? Do the files such as win51ip.SP1, spnotes.htm, WIN51, WIN51IP exist in the root of the CD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonalymac Posted March 15, 2004 Author Share Posted March 15, 2004 Its is slipstreamed (I hope).I have setup.exe,spnotes.htm & win51ip.sp1 in the root of the CD, but not the others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 Attached are the other 2 files, hope this helps.Since you have win51ip.sp1 in the root of the CD, then its definitely slipstreamed. Although you probably deleted those other 2 files by accident.root_files.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAVERICKS CHOICE Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 Is SP1 slipstreamed? Do the files such as win51ip.SP1, spnotes.htm, WIN51, WIN51IP exist in the root of the CD?Just on the spnotes.htm how critical are these? If so how do you incorporate both the XP sp notes & 2k spnotes both the same name in the root of the DVD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 Its only based on what I heard that spnotes.htm has to be included, but I wouldn't really think it matters since its just an html file.I haven't made my own Multi-boot DVD, so I can't really help.

Alanoll Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 i don't think it's neccesary, if you look in like Txtsetup.sif, it's not listed under [sourceDisksName] and such. Just those tag files.but if it is neccesary, you could maybe just create a dummy HTML and then rename the original 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
