How to do unattended installation without any iso modification


Recommended Posts

i want to make a new type of installation procedure for my work but i got stopped that my work place is allowing me to modify the iso files 

 

so i can only do unattended installation and setting by using firstlogoncommands

 

i made some script to do work but everytime my dvddrive wont be with same name

 

I need small help on command line for firstlogoncommands

 

for %i in (c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z) do if exist %i:\sources\sxs" set CDROM=%i:

 

the above command works but is there any possibility that i can start a batch file from the same line?

 

if it is possible i can do all my work without changing any iso files

Yes you can start a .cmd/bat but it needs to physically exist.

 

Here are 2 examples that may be helpful.

Set variable on 1, command on 2

i had not expected that it can store the variable for another instance and is there any RequiresUserInput to be true or false for this ?

 

 

Edit: Just tested with 

 

it is not working variable is losing after instance

this thing is working

<CommandLine>cmd /c FOR %i IN (D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %i:\Settings.cmd Start %i:\Settings.cmd</CommandLine>

 

instead of set CDROM start a batch file from there itself and change the driveletter using wmic in batch so we can assign runonce with that drive letter and it works perfectly

 

if we changed the driveletter using wmic for the same drive where script is there it will work on the same drive letter until next restart
