XPlode doesn't work :(

I ve just tried to use xplode to make a new unattended cdrom with SP2.

When I launch it after the install, it works fine. When launched by Cmdlines.txt, nothing is installed but a dos screen appears @ T13.

What's the problem ? (I would get something like this : http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?act=At...post&id=168435)

My Post.xlm :

The black screen poping @ t-13 isn't your cmdlines.txt. cmdlines.txt is executed @ t-12. t-13 is the svpack.inf I think. Are you using this technic?

It looks like a cmdlines.txt syntaxt error... post it to be sure.

cmdlines.txt doesn't supports environment variables!

Thats why everybody is using batch files.

What you could do is put XPlode.exe near cmdlines.txt and change the later to:

[COMMANDS]

".\XPLode.exe /xml:#Systemdrive#\Install\Post.xml"

That should make it! :)
