S0mE0nesMiNd1 Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 Probably because you didnt catch the part that says to rename it to Winnt.sif >< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alanoll Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 are you installing by BOOTING from the CD?if yes, then rename UNATTEND.TXT to WINNT.SIFare you installing from within windows?$OEM$ should be within the I386 directory. and then you must use /unattend:%pathtofile%\unattend.txt (not sure on teh actual switch, search MS site for them) to sepecify to use the answer file.

MarcL Posted February 1, 2005 Author Share Posted February 1, 2005 For testing, I have been using winnt.exe /u:\xpcd\i386\unattend.txt /s:\xpcd\i386So, for it to work I need to move the $OEM$ folder under i386? Then, when I burn to CD I copy UNATTENDED.TXT to WINNT.SIF and move $OEM$ back to the root?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on how you're using the CD.If you're installing from WITHIN windows, then no.If you're installing by booting into the CD, then yes.
