HELP!!

i've got dot net framework version 1.1 and its service pack.

how do i integrate it in my unattended windows® xp™?

if thats not possible then is there a way to silent install IT using switches?

You can do the slipstream with nLite. As for the easiest silent install for .NET Framework, SP1 for .NET and ASP fix, check below:

1.) Download the .NET Framework 1.1

2.) Extract the contents of the .NET Framework to a folder - you can do this by running dotnetfx.exe /t:c:\temp /c

3.) Download the .NET Framework 1.1 SP1

4.) Extract the service pack MSP package to a folder by running

NDP1.1sp1-KB867460-X86.exe /Xp:c:\temp\sp1.msp

5.) Download the ASP Patch to SP1

6.) Extract the ASP Patch MSP package to a folder by running

NDP1.1sp1-KB886903-X86.exe /Xp:c:\temp\asp.msp.

7.) Run msiexec.exe /a c:\temp\netfx.msi TARGETDIR=c:\temp\netfx

8.) Run msiexec /p c:\temp\sp1.msp /a c:\temp\netfx\netfx.msi

9.) Run msiexec /p c:\temp\asp.msp /a c:\temp\netfx\netfx.msi

You have now created a new netfx.msi, in c:\temp\netfx. You can now run your setup from this folder or you could take all of the contents of c:\temp\netfx, and compress it into a SFX archive. In the SFX archive options set the extraction to silent and run netfx.msi /qb after extraction.

can be done easily with a cmd

ECHO Installing .net Framework 1.1 + SP1...
ECHO Please wait...
start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\dotnetframe\netfx.msi /QB
start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\dotnetframe\NDP1.1sp1-KB867460-X86.exe /Q

Change the dir to yours, this is how I do it.

That is overkill Just download and can add in runonce or in the other methods.

"dotnetfx.exe /q /c:\"msiexec /I netfx.msi /qn\"

And it is already silent. (you need the qoutes) this is in the reunonce in the svcpack.inf do it like this

"dotnetfx.exe /q /c:""msiexec /I netfx.msi /qn"""

If you want to install the update ( I havent downloaded it together)

"KB867460.exe /Q /I"

I guess packaging it as one install is not appropriate for home use... This is done to cut down on the number of executable lines that must run to build/rebuild a base load prior to imaging.

I DON'T KNOW, TRY SEARCHING THE FORUM.

Wait, how do you integrate it with nlite if the installer is an msi?

can i use:

netfx.msi /QB
NDP1.1sp1-KB867460-X86.exe /Q

under svcpack.inf with the same switches?

I don't think .NET can be installed via svcpack.inf. For me, it didn't execute.

works fine

I'll have to test that further...

Ok...this is a cool tuto, but..one final step...how can I add the "langpack" for the .NET 1.1? Thanks!
