rootdown Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 (noob alert) This is my first try at an unattended Windows install.I've slipstreamed SP2 unto a virgin XP CD. This image (XP-SP2) works like a charm (tested with vmware). I then went to work and followed the guide supplied on msfn.org.Installation starts normally but it chokes at T-30 after/at the end of the networking installation. The computer then reboots and (after reboot) i get a message that installation is restarting (which it does). So i end up in an endless installation restart loop. I've looked around and did not find anything similar to my problem which means it's probably nothing but i can't figure it out.The culprit is probably winnt.sif since nothing else has been called at this point. So here it is.Does anyone have a clue about this?;SetupMgrTag[Data] AutoPartition=0 MsDosInitiated="0" UnattendedInstall="Yes"[Unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended OemSkipEula=Yes OemPreinstall=Yes UnattendSwitch="yes" FileSystem=* TargetPath=\WINDOWS DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore[GuiUnattended] AdminPassword=* EncryptedAdminPassword=Yes OEMSkipRegional=1 TimeZone=35 OemSkipWelcome=1[GuiRunOnce] %systemdrive%\Install\start.cmd[Display] BitsPerPel=32 Xresolution=1024 YResolution=768 Vrefresh=85[UserData] ProductKey=xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx FullName="John Doe" OrgName="John Fan Club" ComputerName=Fanclub[RegionalSettings] LanguageGroup=1 SystemLocale=00000c0c UserLocale=00000c0c InputLocale=0c0c:00011009[Identification] JoinWorkgroup="KILLER KLOWNS"[Networking] InstallDefaultComponents=Yes[Components] msnexplr=off

Astalavista Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 rootdown & risolutore did you do any of the following?1. Did you edit your bootup screen?2. Did you edit your WPF file?3. Did you edit your setup bootscreen?4. Are you using RunOnceEx.cmd or Batch Files?5. What else did you modify?Your winnt.sif looks good to me.
risolutore Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 WPF only using nlite 098 method, $oem$ folder and cmdlines.txt is like that.[COMMANDS]"REGEDIT /S regtweaks.reg"
Astalavista Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 your using nlite 098 sorry can't help you there I don't use nlite. pretty buggy for me to use.i see your also not using runonceex.cmd.good luck u should post in the nlite forum.
CrimsonKain Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 This happend to me when I incorrectly edited oobeinfo.ini. Perhaps that's what's causing it?
rootdown Posted September 8, 2004 Author Posted September 8, 2004 1. Did you edit your bootup screen?2. Did you edit your WPF file?3. Did you edit your setup bootscreen?4. Are you using RunOnceEx.cmd or Batch Files?5. What else did you modify?I did not modify any file, did not trim down XP and I'm using a batch file.I have an $OEM$ folder with software to install in $1\Install and i have stuff in $PROGS folder.I'm using a cmdlines.txt and useraccounts.cmd but that should not be the problem since it hasn't been called yet.My version of XP is a french version so that could be it.I did use nlite but only to slipstream SP2, not for editing and trimming down Windows.I'll start back from scratch once i get back home (at work).
Astalavista Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 hi dude!yup, put the nlite away first. pretty buggy tried it once. messed everything up.Can i ask u to also post your RegTweaks.reg, and also your batch command file.here is a really nice link, with lots of pictures how to slipstreamservice pack 2 http://www.winsupersite.com/showcase/windo..._slipstream.aspgood luck pm me if u hv any need of assistance
rootdown Posted September 8, 2004 Author Posted September 8, 2004 I'll post my RegTweaks.reg and batch file tonight when i come back home.No nlite from now on. I used because it was recommended by the tutorials on msfn.org. I should have known better and just go command line. I'll keep you posted on how it goes.Thanks for the help (and the link too).
flyakite Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 I'd be willing to bet I know the reason this problem is happening. I had the EXACT same problem occur yesterday in VMware, and only figured it out once I had tested it without my winnt.sif and it worked.I was running my ISO in VMware with my winnt.sif, and everytime at T-30 it restarted, said "Setup is restarting..." and went back to T-39. So, I took the winnt.sif out and tried again. This time it worked. However it asked for the computer name, and I entered "computerA" for example. Well the computer VMware is running on is also named "computerA" and the installation told me the name was already in use and I had to pick something else.So the solution in my case was to pick a different computer name. In other words, if the computer name in your winnt.sif is already in use on the network and installation has access to the network at the T-30 stage, it won't alert you that it is in use and will just go into an endless loop from T-39 to T-30.I would suggest either choosing a different computer name in your winnt.sif or leaving it blank to test it.Hope this helps,Chris Kite
Astalavista Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 good call. however, I have been testing my UnATTEnded XP on VMmy computer uses the same computer name as the one being installedon my vm. works splendidly
rootdown Posted September 8, 2004 Author Posted September 8, 2004 Yo flyakite, that could be it. My the winnt.sif computer name is the same as my main box (which makes sense for a reinstall). I'll try that tonight. Although i think that when i installed using only the XP-SP2 cd it worked (and i think i used the same computer name).Thanks both for the help, i now have a glimmer of hope that it will work tonight.
risolutore Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 so it depends on what?In the past i used to test in vm the winnt.sif with the same name of the machine without any error till sp1, and now with sp2 I got thi bug?

rootdown Posted September 9, 2004 Author Posted September 9, 2004 It's installing!!I've changed the virtual computer's name in winnt.sif so both the virtual and real computers would not have the same names and it worked. Thanks flyakite for the heads up and thanks Astalavista for the support. This board is great!Now comes the task of customizing this baby...
