MadGutts Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 Hi There,I have never created a CD before, and now reading through the forums i have now been convinced that is a time saving idea and one i should seriously consider.So i have a few questions that instantly come to mind, and no doubt more as i start to create my first disk....I want to create a disk that is not 100% unattended. I need sp4, and the current critical updates (which will change) all on the disk. But i need the install to ask me about the pc name, and networking settings - as this varies at different sites. I Would also like to combine some mapped drives if possible, and is it also possible to install Ms Office 2k As well...Would this be possible?Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peachy Posted September 7, 2004 Share Posted September 7, 2004 Just make sure in your winnt.sif file that the following is not there:[Unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattendedYou can add a batch file using [GuiRunOnce] that has your drive mapping commands.As for Office 2K, I believe you can use the same technique as for Office XP. You can combine the Office install onto a DVD with the unattended XP install or use a separate CD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screwz Luse Posted September 7, 2004 Share Posted September 7, 2004 I would use:[Unattended] UnattendMode=DefaultHideso that any of the entries you do not fill out in the winnt.sif file will have to be filled in by the user. At least the CD-Key and such won't have to be refilled in every time you insert it into another computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
