Right after all the entries have been processed,

I get this error message.

"Unable to install java packages."

The window is titled Java package manager. I click ok, and the error comes back 4 more times. Then it goes into windows.

I don't know whats generating this error. I don't see any java related stuff in my runonceex file.

another problem i'm getting is that after the install, It asks me for the admin password. I read somewhere that I can set it to auto login somewhere, but can't seem to find that info.

thanks

i dunno whats wrong with it but

"Rshutdown.exe -r -f -t 60 -c "Windows XP will now restart in 1 minute..." u have a "R" at the beginning that's wrong...

what do u have in your svcpack.inf? or in_?

Just the regular stuff

I'll test it without the R, and update ..

Well..I can't say for sure, but Q816093.exe is a java package.

Is this a SP1 or SP1a CD? Because if it's a SP1a CD, you have to install the full JVM prior to this update.

Also, some patches/hotfixes will add their own entries to the runonce key.

Maybe the error is from this update? Try removing it and trying again, or check the SP1 vs SP1a thing.

Hope your are testing on VMWare or Virtual PC to save CDs!

yeah ... usign VMware // i'll get back to you on this

i cleaned up the runonceex file, and its all good.

i still have the administrator login issue. i need it to autologin 1 more time ... not sure how i would do that

Modify this in your WINNT.SIF file

[GuiUnattended]
    AutoLogon = Yes
    AutoLogonCount = 1

to this
