Quick question, I might be missing a concept...

[Nakatomi2010]

I've got stuff I want installed, it's in a directory on my CD, so I'll give an example... D:\Install

Now, if I want the WPI to install from there I set the command to "%CDROM%\install\Program" right?

Cause I did that and it doesn't appear to wanna do it...

Am I missing the concept behind the %%'s?

Also, could someone point me in the direction of a post, or sitre that explains the various %%'s"?

Thank you....

Also, I've integrated .NET into the setup process, so it's not being installed at the WPI stage, it's installed before the GUI activates...

Edit: To further add to the problem, what actually happens is I use the %CDROM%\install\setup.exe and the system goes looking in C:\install\wpi\install\setup.exe

As near as I can tell it appears to be a direct result of me integrating .NET framework into such an early point of the instaall, and that the framework is messing up how the system looks for its stuff...

Is there a way I can tell the system that %CDROM% is a CD-Rom drive, not the hard drive...?

The %CDROM% variable is set up when you run the wpi.cmd. This cmd sets the variables and some other stuff, and then calls wpi.hta. It sounds to me that either you are trying to run wpi.hta directly, or you do not have the file that wpi.cmd is looking for in the root of your cd in order to set up the %CDROM% variable.
