Rodney Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 ok ive used a autorun program to launch a small program that will create a standalone iso of the installs in my setup. the only problem i have is that after choosing which os to setup, my autoboot dvd directly boots that os. i removed the fixboot.bin (i think that was the name) so the "press any key to boot blah blah" doesnt come up yet again. what im wondering is that with cdimage.exe can i specify it to include in the iso more then one directory? i want to store the fixboot.bin file somewhere outside of the installation folders so that i am not prompted to "press any key" when i normally use it.the reason i need this done is because some of the versions of the os i did are unattended installs, when they reboot, if the cd drive is set to be checked first, it will just boot the cd again instead of continuing with my setup. any suggestions are welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N30M0D Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 create a customizated batch file (.bat) for each bootfix.bin version that you previously placed in different folders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodney Posted August 19, 2005 Author Share Posted August 19, 2005 i dont understand what you are wanting me to do. how do i integrate the file into the iso without it being in the source folder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jito463 Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 He means in your batch file that runs cdimage, copy all the files to your HDD and copy the bootfix.bin over as well, then create the image. Afterwards, delete the folder on your HDD. Here is an example of how I do something similar on my Preinstall DVD:@ECHO OFFIF NOT EXIST %SystemDrive%\ntldr GOTO 9XCOPY:NTCOPYXCOPY .\XPPro %SystemDrive%\XPPro /E /I /H /Y /K > NULXCOPY ..\Installs %SystemDrive%\XPPro\Installs /E /I /H /Y /K > NULREN %SystemDrive%\XPPro\i386\winnt.bak winnt.sifcdimage.exe -lXPPRO_PRE -t08/04/2004,07:00:00 -b.\xpboot.bin -h -o -m -n %SystemDrive%\XPPro %SystemDrive%\XPPRO_PRE.ISOPAUSEECHO.ECHO Cleaning up files from %SystemDrive%RD /S /Q %SystemDrive%\XPProGOTO EXIT:9XCOPYECHO.ECHO This process cannot be performed under Win9xECHO Please use a WinNT-based machine.PAUSE:EXITSimply modify it to copy what you need it to and you're set.
