Weird Sysprep Problem : Cannot find 8415fix.fon?

[johnbreton]

After building my frist Unattend setup , I am at the point where I Sysprep my machine to prepare it to be Ghosted.

Here is my SYSPREP.INF....pretty simple.

[unattended]

OemSkipEula=Yes

OemPreinstall=Yes

ExtendOEMpartition=Yes

InstallFilesPath = "C:\sysprep\i386"

OemPnPDriversPath = "\Drivers\AUD\1;Drivers\AUD\2;\Drivers\AUD\3;\Drivers\AUD\4;\Drivers\CHP\1;\Drivers\MOD\1;\Drivers\MOD\2;\Drivers\MOD\3;\Drivers\NIC\1;\Drivers\NIC\2;\Drivers\NIC\132;\Drivers\NIC\4;\Drivers\PWM\1;\Drivers\VID\1;\Drivers\VID\2;\Drivers\VID\3;\Drivers\VID\4;\Drivers\VID\5;"

DriverSigningPolicy = Ignore

UpdateInstalledDrivers=Yes

OEMSkipRegional=1

TimeZone=35

AutoLogon="Yes"

AutoLogonCount=1

InstallDefaultComponents=Yes

[Display]

BitsPerPel=32

Xresolution=1024

YResolution=768

Vrefresh=70

Autoconfirm=yes

[sysprep]

BuildMassStorageSection = Yes

[sysprepMassStorage]

Now, My problem is when Sysprep mini-setup is running (after the Ghost image was dumped), I get this error message:

Cannot find 8415fix.fon in c:\sysprep.inf\i386

If I do a search on another computer, I found the file in c:\windows\source\i386 (where source is my i386 source cab file)

If I browse manually to the 8415fix.fon file in C:\windows\source, the sysprep process continues ok.

Anyone has seen this behavior??

Thanks for any help

Change your source path in your sysprep.ini file from c:\sysprep\i386 to c:\windows\source\i386

[johnbreton]

That wont do it because I am using a structure $OEM$ structure in my c:\sysprep\i386

(C:\sysprep\i386\$OEM$)

[mls15000]

Then copy your i386 directory to c:\sysprep\i386 or do

[Unattended]
ResetSourcePath = c:\windows\source\i386

This will specify the location of the source files in the registry.
