n0b0dy Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 Dear to everybody and excuse me for my bad english, but i'm italian I've a trouble of this type: i do an unattend file for an automatic installation of windows xp pro sp1. But when I lunch "unattend client01" from a client windows 98 i received an error of this type:"Script file specified (C:\Windows\Winnt32\unattend.txt) inaccessible or invalid." I attached unattend.txt what's wrong? Thanks!unattend.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prathapml Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 Hi, and welcome to MSFN.Maybe the command is running from a different location, and the unattend.txt at a different location. But to know what is going on, it would be helpful for us to know what exactly this command does:unattend client01 Is it a batch-file? where is it placed? Is the install-source on hard-disk or on CD?Or do you mean to say you run the below?winnt.exe /unattend client01We need some more details here.

n0b0dy Posted September 21, 2004 Author Share Posted September 21, 2004 Thank a lot for your response unattend client01 is a batch file. Unattend.bat is a bat file located in a shared folder on my hard disk.Shared folder is named winxpdist located in c:\. In this folder there is 3 files unattend.bat, unattend.txt and unattend.udbUnattend.udb have the list of computer, while unattend.bat call unattend.txt for an unattended installation. In this folder there is also the folder i386 made by setupmgr.I hope this is useful... I hope!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n0b0dy Posted September 22, 2004 Author Share Posted September 22, 2004 I solved removing [GuiRunOnce] key, but so i can't launch my bat file at logon... Who help me?! Please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prathapml Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 OK, work-arounds... don't we love it when it has to be done... You could use this set of values in winnt.sif and have RunOnce commands in that batch file[SetupParams] optionaldirs="I386\function" userexecute="CMD.exe /C %systemroot%\I386\function\setupp.cmd"The above will run at T-9. "function" is a folder placed inside "I386" install-source. It will get copied to HDD as above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n0b0dy Posted September 22, 2004 Author Share Posted September 22, 2004 excuse me but i don't use winnt.sif, because i used a distribution folder on another computer as source of installation files.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nilfred Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 Where says "winnt.sif" you must read "unattend.txt" so put that set of values in your unattend.txt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
