Acheron Posted December 19, 2004 Share Posted December 19, 2004 you can specify it in cmdlines.txt:[COMMANDS]"bootcfg /Default /ID 1""bootcfg /Addsw /NG /ID 1"Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted December 19, 2004 Share Posted December 19, 2004 BOOTCFG /RAW "/NOGUIBOOT" /A /ID 1will add /noguilogo to the first OS in boot.ini.Edit: doh, too late hp38guser's commands will work too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinout Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 BOOTCFG only works for XP, anyone know something similar for 2000? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nakira Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 Maybe use AutoIT, it has IniRead/IniWrite commands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alanoll Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 i thought bootcfg works on 2000, just that it's not included with 2000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinout Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 Alanoll, I don't think it does... I'm pretty sure long ago I tried taking bootcfg from XP and using it on 2000 and it wouldn't let me run it.Maybe I'll try it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybpsych Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 a bit confused here ...what if i wanted to change from/noexecute=optin -=> /noexecute=AlwaysOff ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kishiro Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 @cybpsych-------------------------------------------------@echo offbootcfg /raw "/Execute /fastdetect" /id 1-------------------------------------------------This disables DEP (Data Execution Prevention) completely. I use it on my unattended WindowsXP CD, and it works like a charm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybpsych Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 thanks Kishiro,i'm not sure what the /Execute switch do, but i've corrected it to be this way:bootcfg /raw "/noexecute=AlwaysOff /fastdetect" /id 1thanks again!*EDIT* OK, found out that /Execute is the reverse of /noexecute ... use /noexecute if you want to determine the switch above or just put /Execute to remove it totally Kishiro, your code is fine ... sorry for my previous reply For all, here's an explanation guide to the switches available for boot.ini.http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/info/bootini.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybpsych Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 hi again ... having trouble with boot.ini ..what i have here is this for my cmdlines.txt:[COMMANDS]"RunOnceEx.cmd""UserAccounts.cmd""IESmallIcon.cmd""REGEDIT /S RegTweaks.reg""bootcfg /raw "/Execute /fastdetect" /id 1"the bootcfg command didn't modify the string at all ...should i ammend it to be this?:[COMMANDS]"bootcfg /raw \""/Execute /fastdetect\"" /id 1" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 This should work:[COMMANDS]"RunOnceEx.cmd""UserAccounts.cmd""IESmallIcon.cmd""REGEDIT /S RegTweaks.reg""BOOTCFG /RAW \"/EXECUTE /FASTDETECT\" /ID 1" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybpsych Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 ok now is see what has confused me lemme try again in VM ...*UPDATE* No luck, it's not added to boot.ini at all.The only way i tested working is through batch file and point it from cmdlines.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
