Hi,

I work in a training center and we have to prepare the calssrooms for each weeks trainings with the appropriate os environments. E.g. we need:

1. A XP CD with SP1a slipstreamed, some drivers and applications (Acrobat, Winzip, ...) on a CD (which is not a problem).

2. We need two different Admin passwords and 5 different IP adress configurations.

Point 1. is completeley the same for all installations. However, with the knowledge we have so far, we would have to burn 10*2 different XP-CDs (one for each possible configuration).

Maybe one of you knows a better solution for this.

Thanks for your support!

a quick suggestion,

place each different WINNT.SIF file on a diskette

instead of in the i386 folder.

when installing from a bootable CD

with no WINNT.SIF in the i386 folder,

it will automatically look to the diskette for the file.

This way, you'll have 1 CD, and many diskettes.

Sharky's is the best solution.

But if you want to eliminate floppy disks, you can make a multi-boot CD - check out the approprate forum at MSFN for this.
