mmainio Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Hi,If I put original xp setup-cd in I have three options first 1. install, 2. repair and 3. quit and if I select 1. then F8 and then comes the part where I can partition and format...Now if I put unattended cd in it goes directly to the part where I can partition and format...Can I make unattended setup-cd in a way that it starts similarly than the original one? I don't mind these two steps more in the beginning of setup because I want anyway to do partitioning etc.My winnt.sif;SetupMgrTag[Data] AutoPartition=0 MsDosInitiated="0" UnattendedInstall="Yes" AutomaticUpdates=yes[Unattended] UnattendMode=DefaultHide OemSkipEula=YES OemPreinstall=YES Hibernation=No TargetPath=\WINDOWS Repartition=No UnattendSwitch=Yes WaitForReboot=No OemPnPDriversPath="Drivers\01" DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore [GuiUnattended] AdminPassword=*** EncryptedAdminPassword=NO OEMSkipRegional=1 TimeZone=125 OemSkipWelcome=1[UserData] ProductID=*** FullName="***" OrgName="***" ComputerName=***[RegionalSettings] LanguageGroup=1[Identification] JoinWorkgroup=***[Networking] InstallDefaultComponents=Yes[Shell] DefaultStartPanelOff = Yes[WindowsFirewall]Profiles = WindowsFirewall.TurnOffFirewall[WindowsFirewall.TurnOffFirewall]Mode = 0MMainio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edbro Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 The line: UnattendedInstall="Yes" means it is going to skip right to an unattended (or in your case, "unintended") install. You have 2 choices:1. Have a separate CD with an unalterted XP setup2. Create a multi-boot cd where you can load different winnt.sif's. Search MSFN, there are lots of threads talking about this. There is also a dedicated thread on multi-boot cd/dvds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmainio Posted August 26, 2004 Author Share Posted August 26, 2004 Thank You for quick answer! Maybe two disks - it's not really a problem; just happened to notice that when accidentally booting with my unattended cd...MMainio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msbhi22 Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 you have to change the value of Autopartition to 1 i presume . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
