Just slipstreamed SP2 into my SP1 Unattended XP CD (had to delete Winnt.sif first, otherwise SP2's Update.exe wouldn't update the installation files; but then recreated it with the new options incorporated in it). Then I created the bootable image and went on to try it on VMware.

I get this message from Windows setup right after it starts, on the typical blue background (F3=Exit).

Then I slipstreamed SP2 into my original XP SP1 CD, created the image, and booted. It all went Ok so I guess it has to do with my unattended configuration.

What could it be? I can just copy over the files again, and I guess that will work, but I am really curious about what is causing this.

put the root files on to the cd

SETUP.EXE

WIN51

WIN51IP

win51ip.SP2

etc....

Great! Thanks a lot guys.

It surprised me that I couldn't find any posts about this issue, since I don't think it's _that_ obvious what the files inside the [root] folder are for. (Actually, I didn't even see them )

The posts about cd-ident files here in the nLite forum, might be a good option to read - to solve that error message.
