installrite with Runonceex.cmd

hehehee

it is correct installrite should only be used as a last resort.

1. go w/ switches -- simple no brainer

2. go w/ Autoit --- a little more difficult

3. go w/ Installrite -- cons, may not capture everything, or capture to much.

Hahaha!! Yeah. I don't understand his statement that well too. But I think he is planning to make and InstallRite installation for VMWare, which is not a simple program.

@saitoh183

Hey buddy! Please, don't punish yourself on repackaging a complex program like VMWare (if that's what you mean on your previous post). If you need to install it silently, just use this:

@echo off

Title VMWare Workstation Setup

ECHO.

ECHO Installing VMWare Workstation

ECHO Please wait...

start /wait setup.msi DISABLE_AUTORUN=0 DESKTOP_SHORTCUT=1 SERIALNUMBER=12345-12344-12345-12345 /QN

ECHO.

ECHO Done!

Of course, you have to replace the serial number with your serial number, including the dashes. B)

sorry...i was a little drunk on that last response...(now in feeling better) What i was saying is that i will test the install packages that i made with installrite with my unattended XP that i will install on a Virtual machine... to see if they work...of not then i will use switches. I will be doing the rest of my silent install with switches that i find on the sticky in this forum.

I think u hv a hang over. I dont understand what u are saying.

can u say it in french instead?

[saitoh183]

ok...What im saying is that i have already made silent installers of certain programs with installrite and i will add them to my XP unattended CD that im making and i will test it using VMware to see if it works

[Astalavista]

OK That makes more sense.
