Droiyan3 Posted May 24, 2005 Posted May 24, 2005 hm i am currently learning how to install windows unattended ..i finished the beginners part..right now i am starting the intermidate section..well i have a question.the thing is that i do not having something matching up in my winnt.sif file...on the page is written To edit the WINNT.SIF file, simply open it up in notepad and edit it as follows:[unattended]OemPreinstall=YesUnattendSwitch="yes"OemPreinstall=Yes instructs Windows XP Setup that there is an $OEM$ distribution share on the CD. This will tell setup to copy them over to the destination hard drive of where Windows is being installed.UnattendSwitch="yes" instructs Windows XP Setup to skip the "Welcome to Windows XP" screens, where user account and Internet setting-up takes place. If you didn't skip this then it wouldn't really be "unattended" would it? :-) (Although we'll worry about User Account creation by going to the Add Users & Auto Logon page later).but if You look at my winnt.sif file then you can see that i dunno have it...here is it...can some one help me out...;SetupMgrTag[Data] AutoPartition=1 MsDosInitiated="0" UnattendedInstall="Yes"[unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended OemSkipEula=Yes OemPreinstall=Yes TargetPath=\WINDOWS[GuiUnattended] AdminPassword=* EncryptedAdminPassword=NO OEMSkipRegional=1 TimeZone=170 OemSkipWelcome=1[userData] ProductKey=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX FullName="Diego" OrgName="" ComputerName=Berlin[Display] BitsPerPel=32 Xresolution=1024 YResolution=768 Vrefresh=85[RegionalSettings] LanguageGroup=5,1 SystemLocale=00000409 UserLocale=00000409 InputLocale=0419:00000419[identification] JoinWorkgroup=WORKGROUP[Networking] InstallDefaultComponents=Yesthanks forward
TheeBeets Posted May 24, 2005 Posted May 24, 2005 Then add it [unattended]UnattendMode = FullUnattended UnattendSwitch = Yes OemPreinstall = Yes OemSkipEula = Yes FileSystem = * WaitForReboot = No NoWaitAfterTextMode = 1 NoWaitAfterGUIMode = 1 TargetPath = Windows
Droiyan3 Posted May 24, 2005 Author Posted May 24, 2005 thanks for the fast answer..but what about how they are lined upfor example as u writte Unattended]UnattendMode = FullUnattendedUnattendSwitch = YesOemPreinstall = YesOemSkipEula = YesFileSystem = *WaitForReboot = NoNoWaitAfterTextMode = 1NoWaitAfterGUIMode = 1TargetPath = Windowsbut i have[unattended]UnattendMode=FullUnattendedOemSkipEula=YesOemPreinstall=YesTargetPath=\WINDOWSthis meanst that i would need to writte it inside...will this affect the installation some how...?

Martin Zugec Posted May 24, 2005 Posted May 24, 2005 Nope... In answer file you dont have to use defined order (this applies to categories and to settings), you only need to include settings in right category...
