metalboy15 Posted March 22, 2004 Author Share Posted March 22, 2004 after that how do i make a Unattended XP Pro CD with the changes made by the batch files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayOK Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 Well, it says how to do it within the first 5 paragraphs of Joe's site, but Isorta agree they do need a little more detailed documentation, esp in the .zipfile you download.Anyway, just take expand.exe, makecab.ex_ and findstr.ex_ out of I386Expand the two ex_ files with expand.Put all the batches you wanna use and the 3 files above in the root of the CD that's on your HD.Either expand driver.cab and sp1.cab or first click on the "DRIVERS! Before you Begin.cmd"Keep clicking on all the .cmds you want, waiting like 30 secs or so after each is finished to make sure its finished.Lastly .cmd file to click is "DRIVERS! Finishing off"Then delete the 3 file and all the .cmd files from your CD root and that should be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalboy15 Posted March 22, 2004 Author Share Posted March 22, 2004 that process is for making an unattended xp pro cd with the changes made by the batch files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eirogge Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 thats the explanation on how to apply the patches by joe. for a unattended guide use unattended.msfn.orgbe sure to read everything two times to understand it. nearly everyone understood the perfect guide so you will too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 that process is for making an unattended xp pro cd with the changes made by the batch files?No, it doesn't create an Unattended XP CD. Its very different to what you want. It slims down the size of Windows XP's installation files. It explains this on the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toreach Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 Ive used both guides. First the one with all the batch files so i get about 180MB. Freeing up about 300Megs. So that was for getting it small. After done that and testet that it works i applied the Reducing Size of Source Guide written by Gosh i guess to get it booting. With all the files on his page this second step took me about 5 minutes (well, not exactly) to get the cd booting to start its unattended thing. It works perfect!My XPCD-SP1 without any additions is now 175.000k small. gives me about 525.000k free space left for whatever i want it to be used for. Im planning to use about 225.000k for additions and 300.000k for office.Ive read that it would be possible using both guides to get the base install to about 150Megs. But i really dont know what to delete after all this is done. Maybe the OEMBios.BI_? I dont know and i guess at least not this file. (But its 14 Megs)Ill give it a try someday when absolutely all works the way i want it to and a master iso is saved at a secure place! (Well, i just deleted my only english sp1 orig version through some stupid operations with WinISO -.-). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
