idbirch2 Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 Anyone managed to get Norton Ghost 9.0 to install silently? I've tried:setup.exe /s /v"/qn REBOOT=Suppress"and also setup /? tells you:setup.exe /s /v /qnBut that doesn't work either. It uses an MSI but this has to be launched through Setup.exe which is an InstallShield installer. I have tried setup -R but no setup.iss is created in C:\Windows Partition Magic 8.05 seems exactly the same apart from that it successfully creates setup.iss when using -R.

idbirch2 Posted September 9, 2004 Author Share Posted September 9, 2004 Sorry, TXTSETUP.SIF?? This file does not exist in the Ghost install files or the program folder once its installed - where should it be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metzen Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 Sorry, TXTSETUP.SIF?? This file does not exist in the Ghost install files or the program folder once its installed - where should it be?Ghost 9.0 uses Windows PE for it's recovery disk? The TXTSETUP.SIF should be in a folder in there I think... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idbirch2 Posted September 10, 2004 Author Share Posted September 10, 2004 OK so now we have it - what the hell is it and will it help do a silent install? If not why is it even being mentioned? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havok Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 have you tried setup.exe /s /v/qn instead of setup.exe /s /v /qn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaveCat Posted September 12, 2004 Share Posted September 12, 2004 This seems to work indeed .The only problem isto add the serial key so it is automatically registered . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r4v3n Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 Anyone managed to get it registered as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khadgar Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Also unsuccessfull in installing it registered.Have the same problem with PowerQuest V2i Protector (Desktop Edition) which is actually the same program.As always with Symantec, when they see something they like, they buy it and label it with their own name...... Anyway, no luck so far.Using the applications mentioned on http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/applications.htm haven't brought a solution either.Looks like PowerQuest did it's best to hide the register information Is there a way to prevent the reboot after install?Tried the regular switches but they won't work.
