My regtweaks.reg are not inserted

[MADIKKE]

Howdi y'all

I'm making a unattended XP cd and it works fine, except for one thing..

it wont install my custom .reg's

If im correct at this:

I've put my cmdlines.txt in the $oem folder, with this inside it :

[commands]

"REGEDIT /S regtweaks.reg"

also , to be sure I've added

ECHO.

ECHO Applying Registry Tweaks...

REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%\install\RegTweaks.reg

to my batch_file (where it installs all apllications etc.

I've used the registerytweaks.txt from somewhere on this forum and modded it.

but NONE of my .reg's work...just like they are not inserted or so....

Help me ?

I've added my regtweaks.reg

Regtweaks.reg

[bledd]

add this to the top line of the file

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

-edit, going to nick a few of these and add them to mine

Since we're posing registry tweaks B) :

As to making your regtweaks import, do as I've told everyone else with this issue - don't use cmdlines.txt for reg entries or RunOnceEx - in your WINNT.SIF, use:

[setupParams]

UserExecute=%systemdrive%\temp\unattend.cmd

Place your reg files and your runonce.cmd file in $oem$\c\temp\, and make a file called unattend.cmd (in the same folder), and add:

--- unattend.cmd ---

@echo off

%systemdrive%\temp\runonce.cmd

regedit /s %systemdrive%\temp\<name of your registry entries>.reg

-----------------------

Then, your registry entries are called and added at the T-9 stage. This works much better than cmdlines.txt.

Hey I like some of them tweaks guys, don't mind if I knock a few off

I hope....

I don't use the $oem method of adding registry entries however, I edit

the appropriate hive---.inf file , usually hivesft.inf...

I think cluberti originally showed me that way as an alternative a while ago..

cluberti, I notice in yours you state to make sure when saving the txt file

to make sure the word wrap is off, man I learnt that the hard way..

I'd been adding the registry entries for the last 20 or so mods this way

but suddenly started to get errors about the setup being unable to install

the catalogues with an error that went something like 8001b0001..

Just out of curiosity I turned word wrap off after killing a dozen or so attempts &

was back to working fine when saved after editing the hivesft.inf.

I was starting to lose faith in my ability to do anything there for a while until

that was found..

Hey there Cluberti,

A minor question

Im not using runonceex anyhwere

So could I just edit the :

--- unattend.cmd ---

@echo off

%systemdrive%\temp\runonce.cmd

regedit /s %systemdrive%\temp\<name of your registry entries>.reg

-----------------------

by removing %systemdrive%\temp\runonce.cmd ?

Or do I need to replace it by %systemdrive\install\batch_file.cmd (this is what installs all of my program's)

[cluberti]

You are correct, just remove the runonce line and you should be good to go.

works ty !

the Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

did the trick
