Incroyable HULK Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 I'm almost done with my Multi-Boot Project but there is a question remaining:Where do I put my Winnt.sif and $OEM$ folder for my Unattended Installations.For example, I use EasyBoot and I have followed their Instruction Guide and I end up with this structure:ROOT|_WIN51 (file)|_WIN51IP (file)|_WIN51IP.SP2 (file)|_EZBOOT (folder)|_XPEN (folder)|___Some files (ATAPI.SY_ Etc.)|___I386|_____Windows files...Don't tell me to put the $OEM$ folder at the root because I want to put many Windows Installations...

Incroyable HULK Posted November 10, 2004 Author Share Posted November 10, 2004 Hummm... I've decided to do a test with winnt.sif and $OEM$ folder inside my XPEN directory (parallel to the I386 folder).During the TextSetup portion it looks fine as winnt.sif kicks in and the $OEM$ folder is copied over... but at the beginning of the GUI I get:After I click OK, I can specify where to find the files (D:\XPEN\I386)It goes on and on for the following files:1- asms (it is a folder under I386)2- NT5INF.CAT3- NT5.CAT4- SP2.CAT5- NTPRINT.CAT6- NT5IIS.CAT7- MAPIMIG.CAT8- FP4.CAT9- IMS.CAT10-MSMSGS.CAT11-HPCRDP.CAT12-MW770.CAT13-wmerrenu.cat14-IASNT4.CAT15-MSTSWEB.CAT16-OEMBIOS.CAT17-tabletpc.cat18-mediactr.cat19-msn7.cat20-msn9.cat21-netfx.catThen I finally get this:Afterward, Setup goes on ... but I seem to be stuck at the T-37 stage (37-minutes)Any hint or idea?

Incroyable HULK Posted November 11, 2004 Author Share Posted November 11, 2004 YES! YES! YEAHHHH! I GOT IT TO WORK! B) Basically I started over and followed the guide:1- http://flyakite.msfnhosting.com/gettingstarted.htm2- http://flyakite.msfnhosting.com/xpprosp1.htmthe only difference is in the last step where I used the boot sector provided with EasyBoot (w2ksect.bin) and left the file in the ezboot folder (not at root like the guide)I wanted to check what I had done so far so I started a "regular" Installation under simulation and it worked.Lastly I followed the guide to do the Unattended part:3- http://flyakite.msfnhosting.com/unattended.htmAs I am typing theses lines, my simulation is running trought RunOnceEx.cmd and everything worked without a hitch!Cheers!
