How to use different Config files

[andreasfc]

I have a question about the config.js file.

Is it possible to use more than 1 config.js file within 1 installer.

I want to use a seperate config file for applications and one for games.

The changing of the filenames, for instance

wpigames.hta and wpiapps.hta isn't a problem

also are the 2 config files, seperately pointing to them isn't a problem too, but when changing the config file it is not working.

Anyone had an idea?

Thanx

I think I have found it

Is it correct that I only need to change the following files

Config.js

configwizard.js

wpi.hta

I do want to use the same settings for both installers, they will be started from an menu.

I catched this idea and edit my htaconfig.cmd:

@echo off

:getchoice

cls

Echo Pasirinkite, kokios krypties bus sistema

Echo.

Echo 0. Bazinis

Echo 1. Media

Echo 2. Remontas

Echo 3. Visas diegimas

Echo 4. Games

Echo.

My [wpi] folder is in the root, not in the [install] folder.

0 - basic

1 - media

2 - maintenance

3 - all

4 - games

** press 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 digit to meet system configuration

Every configuration has its style - wallpaper, apps, wpi.css (to change font colors)

This is one of the options but, when running from a dvd/cd there would be a problem, because I cannot write to the dvd/cd.

Anyone has another option?

Thanx

You might save the files needed to your hard disk, and then open them from there, for example, when you install windows, you have a little program copying your config files to hdd, then when you run your wpi, you make it run the files on your hdd..

Dunno if this is the right solution, just thinking out loud...

No need to run WPI from CD

There is a folder $OEM$ and subfolders $1 $$ in it - on my DVD root.

$OEM$

----$1

  -------WPI

----$$

WPI is copied to systemdrive during Windows instalation.

I run WPI after Windows instalation by GUIRunOnce

Here is a fragment from winnt.sif:

[GUIRunOnce]

command10=%systemdrive%\wpi\htaconfig.cmd

When you need to install some programs that was not post-installed you are able to run WPI using CD autorun (start menu > your_run_wpi.cmd > %systemdrive%\wpi\htaconfig.cmd).
