Steffen Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 (edited) Hello,I work for a compagnie where we have a big problem with a unatended install of Windows XP Proffesional..We want that the setup looks for drivers on a floppy disk. If we dont use winnt.sif there is no problem, but if we use winnt.sif the setp dont copy the rais drivers. Do you have a solution??

berrick Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 set this optoin in win.sif to "no"UnattendedInstall="Yes"it should then allow the use of the F6 key and allow everything else to function as per your unattended cd according to the winnt.sif file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bâshrat the Sneaky Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Read section #1 of the sticky: there you can find links to some tutorials that explain you how to slipstream mass storage drivers into your UWXPCD: that way you won't have to use a floppydisk anymore at all!

BeenThereB4 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 And last but not least --- the correct answer:[unattended]UnattendMode=FullUnattendedOemSkipEula=YesOemPreinstall=NoTargetPath=\WINDOWSUnattendSwitch="yes"FileSystem=*OemPnPDriversPath="No" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bâshrat the Sneaky Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 BeenThereB4 is correct, that's the easiest solution in this case, since you do not seem to be using the OemPnPDriversPath! (Disabling OemPreInstall obviously disables copying the contents of the $OEM$ folder to the HDD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackaque Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 I had the same problemBut me I do need to copy the OEM folder to my HDD cause I do auto install software at the end when XP boot.Is there a solution then ?Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steffen Posted October 31, 2005 Author Share Posted October 31, 2005 Please help indeed... This problem need to be solved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeenThereB4 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 If you need to copy the $OEM$ directory, then the simplest solution is pointed to in post #6 above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackaque Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 I can't do that cause I format a lot of PCs, and need different RAID driversI want to use a Floppy to get the driversSo there is no solution to use a floppy and use the OEM folder ?It sounds impossible to me :/Let me know if you know another solutionThank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best of both worlds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackaque Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Hehe that was a great ideaI'll explain you what I did !I have some updates that I install in SVCPACK.INF[setupHotfixesToRun]2.exe /Q /O /N /Z3.exe /Q /O /N /Z4.exe /Q /O /N /Z5.exe /Q /O /N /Z6.exe /Q /O /N /Z7.exe /Q /O /N /Z8.exe /Q /O /N /Z9.exe /Q /O /N /ZSo I made a file named COPYSOFT.CMD and I putted an XCOPY in it to copy the file I want on C:I tested the .CMD and it works fine in windows.So I edited my SVCPACK.INF and now it looks like thisSetupHotfixesToRun]COPYSOFT.CMD2.exe /Q /O /N /Z3.exe /Q /O /N /Z4.exe /Q /O /N /Z5.exe /Q /O /N /Z6.exe /Q /O /N /Z7.exe /Q /O /N /Z8.exe /Q /O /N /Z9.exe /Q /O /N /ZProblem is I tried to reinstall windows and it's like it didn't worked, no file was copied on my C:Is SVCPACK.INF run .CMD or only .EXE ?Do I need to put it in another part of the file ?I'm trying something else right now, I put the XCOPY in the useraccounts.cmd file and this one I'm sure it's working at the end of installation of XP I see the dos window executing the commands in itWell if there is a way to makes CMD works in SVCPACK.INF let me knowThank for your idea it's a good one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackaque Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Ok !If I put the XCOPY in useraccounts.cmd it works #1 !All the files was copied on the C: and in the first logon all the soft was installed !Thanks to everybody for their helpIf someone knows a way to add it to SCVPACK.INF let me know but if there is no solution, I'll stay with useraccounts.cmdThx again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
