djbe Posted October 20, 2004 Share Posted October 20, 2004 Thanks, works like a charm now!For office, I made an unattended install (administrative install thingy with patches slipstreamed) and now, when I call "pro11.msi /qb" it installs word, excel, ..., publisher. kinda easy now if a new patch appears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hasi001 Posted October 20, 2004 Share Posted October 20, 2004 Haven't tested with Network UNC Paths though. But i think it should work wint the %cdrom% in the command's path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dhernande Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 Feature Request if possible if not no biggie. It just may suit my needs only.As am trying to limit the amount of CD's I have and reduce complication.I’m going to be coping and using the WPI app on the to following unattended cd’s I have win2kpro,win2ksvr,winxpro,winxhome, and win2k3 you get the picture right. Well the feature request that I have. Is to put in a configuration to specify the Os this app or Tweak is for. If OS=Win2k for example then install all those items. plus defaults.I know WPI stands for Windows XP Post Install. But I need it for Windows. Overall Anyways just an idea.Keep up the good work.

djbe Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 I've got another question:I need two WPI's:one for during the unattended install (done)one for when i want to install an app sometime from the cd (without having to copy the whole OEM folder to the hdd)For the second WPI, how do I call the apps? like this?prog[pn]=['Adobe Reader 6.02 Full']desc[pn]=['Allows to view PDF-Files.<i>Recommended</i>']cmd1[pn]=['%cdrom%\\$OEM$\\$1\\Install\\Applications\\Tools\\acroread602.exe']dflt[pn]=['yes'] cat[pn]=['Tools']pn++ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a06lp Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 i just noticed something.I started using categories, for the first time, and now for some reason, every time I run my VEGAS VIDEO 4.0 setup, when it finishes, the computer restarts.This is IRRELEVANT to what other programs are on the list (I tried ALL programs, and JUST Vegas. In BOTH cases, the computer restarted.)I also changed the line in generate.js (as per your instructions in a past post):if (i%40 == 0) // call RunOnceEx every 40 apps, so that the window doesn't grow too bigbut the program causes a restart whether its 35 (like it was when everything installed), or 40 (when i ONLY installed vegas).i never used to have this problem...i dont know whats wrong.here's my code for vegas:cmd1[pn]=['systemdrive','install\\Applications\\vegasvideo\\vegas.msi /QB-!']why is it restarting?
