BeenThereB4 Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 (edited) I followed the instructions except I used Windows 2000 advanced server instead of Windows 2000 and I'm installing via the network with Rapid Deployment System by HP. I ran into one problem. During the file copy portion of the installation, I receive the following error for 2 files: "Windows 2000 Server Setup Setup cannot copy the file: nsisapi.exe". Same error for nspmon.exe.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>This message can be generated when the file names are not upper cased prior to building the CD as I pointed out in this thread some time ago. However, the thread guru did not respond leading me to believe that he does not understand this. Both nLite and XPcreate learned this along the way.

tripleX Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 @tripleX - According to KB890046, it has no bearing on the line you quoted from HFSLIP. The line you quoted was due to a webvw.dll issue. If you have issues with your installation, please post the results from HFNETCHK otherwise I can't help. O.k., let´s see if I can find this tool, in the meantime I installed (again) a slipstreamed version made with hfslip-050818 and the result -> I will do it the "official" way for now ...tripleX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bireland Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 @tommyp - Even though you haven't tested hfslip with Win2k, it works great! fdv is correct in that I don't really need those 2 files, I was just posting for info and in case someone allready knew how to fix it. Since i last posted, I've renamed my unattend.txt file to winnt.sif and run hfslip_50821.cmd again. This time mpeg2data.ax could not be copied. I'm hopeing this is not some kind of random error @fdv - You are correct, I don't really need thsoe 2 files. It just would be nice to have no errors! I will try and comment out those entries TXTSETUP and LAYOUT.Thanks for the help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bireland Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 I've got a good SP4 slipstreamed package. How can I manually slipstream IE6 into my package without useing HFSLIP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommyp Posted September 1, 2005 Author Share Posted September 1, 2005 @BeenThereB4 - I don't know if you are being sarcastic or not in this wonderful world of the internet, but can you verify that the files that bireland mentions are on the CD for 2000 server? I can't because I just don't have it. The script is set up for a cd installation, not a network install that bireland did. HFSLIP even says that it is intended for installing from a CD when you run the program. But it's nice to hear what happens when the script can be capable of. As far as capilization goes, I have never ever had any issues with upper/lowercase filenames on my installation cds. In fact, I'm not sure if you checked lately, but if you slipstream (not hflsip) SP4 onto W2K, and/or if you slipstream (not hfslip) SP2 onto XP, you'll see lowercase filenames on some of the files. Those sources seem to install fine for lots of people. So I'm not sure what you're getting at with the capitilization mandate. @bireland - Slipstreaming IE6 is more than fileswaps for it to work. I think the traditional method of slipstreaming IE6 isn't really slipstreaming at all. It's just running the IE6 installer at the SVCPACK.INF.

fdv Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 (edited) @all IE removers - have a look at http://www.osbetaarchive.com/index.php?showtopic=7011&hl=it would seem that litestep and aveshell have been made to run on a windows system as the shell without explorer.exe. previously, this was only possible under certain circumstances with other software (samurai) but now it would seem that has changed.ie-free users who are interested in running windows programs but scrapping much of the os might find this project interesting.

lupo Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 (edited) @fdv @tommypEdit: talking about windows 2000 pro and webvw.dllI don't know the benefits about the new version of webvw.dll but I know that if you want to use the last version of this file you have to replace the file winnt\web\webview.js (it's the corrupted file in italian version... and I think in all other international version that have the "computer near me" issue)You can replace such file bringing a copy of it from a 'normal' installation of Win2k+sp4. (!!!warning it differ language by language!!!) this is only an info, infact using webvw.dll of sp4 could be right too. (as you do in this version of hfslip)...I don't know the benefits(? seem microsoft enjoying make corrupted files) of the new version...sure fdv knows it Hope this will help you...AH, I'm forgetting... Great, great work tommyp!!! bye Edited September 2, 2005 by lupo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fdv Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 @lupo - indeed we do know about this we preferred to keep the DLL and use the newer .JS file because the .JS file has an exploit associated with it. The DLL seemed the safer choice when running IE 5 or 6 with currently-issued hotfixes. We appreciate the feedback and the info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fdv Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 @bireland - RIS guide. This might help you. nLite's problem with RIS, documented here, does not mention uppercase or lowercase filenames as BeenThereB4 posts. BTB4, if this is the case please post a thread we can get the filename case information from, thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outatouch Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 @ MalonieHaving an error(s) on the first few tries (with anything) is not uncommon. It took me a few trial runs to get HFSLIP running perfectly for me. I tested each run on a virtual pc in order to troubleshoot any problems.Sometimes when I can't find the problem I start again from scratch: Take all hotfixes, files, etc out of the various foldersPossibly redownload HFSLIPStart again at STEP ONE of the directions reading carefully and assuming nothing. (This will be where I most likely went wrong.) If you find something in the directions you don't quite understand ask for clarification here in the forum/thread.HANG IN THERE - YOU'LL GET IT !! - If I can get it to work anyone can B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
