svcpack.ing and comments

[oioldman]

Hi,

I did search and didn't notice anyone else ask this so,

Question: Is it possible to add a comment?

Reason: I wish to note which Security update it is called from for reference when they are updated

Example: KBxxxxxx.exe /q /n/ z ; MS05-xxx Cumulative update for IE

Thank you

[edit]

Can a mod, if they read, please correct speling of svcpack.inf in Topic Title. Cheers

I think that'll be OK, but you can always find out for sure with a virtual machine

Have tested and worked fine.

Just to clarify, your svcpack.inf can have comments so you know what the hotfix is for.

Example below;

;Windows XP
[Version] 
Signature="$Windows NT$"
MajorVersion=5
MinorVersion=1
BuildNumber=2600

[SetupData]
CatalogSubDir="\i386\SVCPACK"

[ProductCatalogsToInstall]

[SetupHotfixesToRun]
kb893803v2.exe /q /n /z; Windows Installer 3.1 v2 (3.1.4000.2435)
kb898461.exe /q /n /z; Software update 898461 installs a permanent copy of the Package Installer for Windows version 6.1.22.4
kb892130.exe /q /n /z; Windows Genuine Advantage tool

So there you go.
