Another way to get the source files copied over to the hard drive is to copy your I386 folder to $OEM$\$1

So it will be copied over durring the text mode part of setup.

This will only work if you are using CDImage.exe to create your ISO image. Just add switch "-o" to your create image batch file.

And I added these to my tweaks.reg file to redirect the OS to the new I386 folder:

CODE

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup]"Installation Sources"=hex(7)& #58;43,00,3a,00,5c,00,49,00,33,00,38,00,36,00,00,0

0,\

00,00

"SourcePath"="C:"

"ServicePackSourcePath"="C:"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion]

"SourcePath"="C:\\I386"

is there a way to force setup to install off of the newly created c:\i386 folder instead of the CD
