Hello,

RIS Server: Win 2000

I am trying to create a new RIS base Image from a Dell Windows XP Pro disk. I also added some NIC drivers and it all seemed fine. I PXE boot from a workstation and the information is loaded on the hard drive.

The problem turns up when it reboots and starts the windows installation. It installs the NIC drivers successfully and then restarts the computer automatically. At next reboot, it tries to install the NIC again. This is an endless loop.

Any idea of what I did wrong?

Thanks very much for your time.

Fred.

Dunno but a good way of starting the troubbleshooting is to get a MS "gold" WinXP (with slipstreamed SP) and perform the RIS installation from that CD instead of using Dell's provided CD.
