Can't get winnt.sif to work - can you take a look?


Recommended Posts

I am trying to do this with XP Home + SP1 slipstreamed. I'm not sure if I am making an error or if the Unattended Guide was strictly written for SP2 and will not work with SP1.

I should be banned. Here's why:

I have been editing the winnt.sif then running VMware. The problem is that I was was editing the XPCD but not creating a new ISO; hence, I was running an emulation on the same image, over and over.... :blushing:

Ok, so now I have successfully ran an unattended installation but I had a few problems with some unattended apps. For a couple of them, the path was wrong and I was able to spot and correct that. But there were others that had problems. Is there a log that I might view to help sort this out?

I recall CDex 1.51 asking for a prompt, as well as SpyBot. I'll search for those switches but if anybody knows them right off, please be so kind as to post.

wedge1, for CDex go to CDex info and get the AutoIT file.

For Spybot I use the following in my RunOnceEx.

REG ADD %KEY%\016 /VE /D "Spybot Search and Destroy v1.3" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\016 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\Software\Spybot\Spybotsearch.exe /LOADINF=%CDROM%\Software\Spybot\Spybot.inf /VERYSILENT /SP-" /f

If you get stuck use the Search facility for hunting down the switches
