esp Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 Hello,been doing this a long time but recently i converted my whole dvd in order to get all applications installing from the dvd in stead of the hd. I use WPI.Everything worked before (when installing from the hd) but now when installing from the dvd I can't seem to get a few programs installed anymore._ Photoshop CS_ iTunes_ Dreamweaver7I read in these forums that for instance photoshop only works from cd (or dvd) when adding another commandlike this;Installing from hd=%systemdrive%\install\Applications\PhotoshopCS\Photoshop\setup.exe -sInstalling from dvd=%cdrom%\Applications\Applications\PhotoshopCS\Photoshop\setup.exe -s -f2"%systemdrive%\Photoshop.log"I now have;%cdrom%\Applications\DreamweaverMX2004\Setup.exe -s%cdrom%\Applications\DreamweaverMX2004update\Setup.exe -sREGEDIT /S %cdrom%\Applications\DreamweaverMX2004update\register.reg%cdrom%\Applications\itunes\iTunesSetup.exe /S /v/qnSo are there some additives for itunes and dreamweaver as well to get them working from (my) dvd?

It is not a system variable like %systemdrive%. Search on the forums for %CDROM%, you'll find plenty of ways of setting it as a variable.HTH Rik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esp Posted October 22, 2005 Author Share Posted October 22, 2005 I know what %cdrom% is for and how to control it. I use WPI, so if you know that program you know there is a batch file that calls WPI but also sets the cd-letter by searching a .ico file in the root directory of the cd.ALL my other programs work correctly. Just Photoshop, iTunes and Dreamweaver won't anymore since I went for the 'install apps from dvd' method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
