Weird problems using winnt.exe to install


Recommended Posts

My unattended cd works like a charm when booted with the cd. But when I try to install it on a dos partition the problems start.

I use this command to install my cd:

[autoexec.bat]

@echo off
smartdrv.exe
cd xp_inst\I386
winnt.exe /u:winnt.sif /s:c:\xp_inst\I386

The install start copying a huge amount of files (more then with booting from the cd) I believe he copies everything, so all files are placed twice on the same harddisk.

Then I get errors that some files are missing and can't be copied:

fsdkreboot.exe
wmfdist95.exe
wmc_color48.png
wmcsci.dll
cmccfg.chm
cmccfg.exe
wmccds.exe
MediaReveicerReigstrar.xml
ContentDirectory.xml

Later on in the copying process I get ever more files missing:

udpspaipi.dll
update.exe
spcustom.dll

These files are anywhere on the cd.. not even on the original..

I can skip those files but then after the installation is done I notice that my cmdlines.txt aren't processed eighter...

And ideas how to fix this?
