glentium Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 yes, I made another CD without the InstallRC option and the error message I mentioned didn't came up. After install, I ran from the command prompt: START /WAIT I386\winnt32.exe /cmdcons /unattendThe error I mentioned came up again but just like what happened when I included InstallRC, it just continued with the installation after I pressed OK.

Super-Magician Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Actually, I wanted you to try it with your original source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiki Burgh Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 (edited) it should be noted that if you delete winntupg folder, you can not install the recovery console...most people dont delete this folder either, but its needed for the same thing and that folder is compdata...though I dunno if you can delete that folder and windows will install still.http://www.msfn.org/board/lofiversion/index.php/t29212.htmlthis more or less confirms your find glentium normal installation once OS hits the GUI is: x:\i386\winnt32.exe /cmdconstry to cross-refer to this too: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=75945 Edited June 13, 2006 by Kiki Burgh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super-Magician Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 All right. So I guess Tomcat can put a line inside HFSLIP that looks for the presence of WINNTUPG before inserting the line in HFSLIP.CMD, as such:IF "%InstallRC%"=="1" IF EXIST SOURCE\I386\WINNTUPG\* ECHO>>SOURCESS\I386\SVCPACK\HFSLIP.CMD START/WAIT %%HFSLIP%%\winnt32.exe /cmdcons /unattend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomcat76 Posted June 14, 2006 Author Share Posted June 14, 2006 I don't think HFSLIP shouldn't put the line if WINNTUPG is not detected. The user isn't forced to copy the entire CD source prior to running HFSLIP.@Super-Magician: Sorry for the delay but your suggestion regarding MakeNoISO and MAKEISO is implemented in 60613b.

The user isn't forced to copy the entire CD source prior to running HFSLIP.I'm thinking a few months from now someone will encounter this issue when they run HFSLIP with InstallRC=1 in his or her HFANSWER.INI file and no WINNTUPG folder. Then, they will come yelling for help. @Super-Magician: Sorry for the delay but your suggestion regarding MakeNoISO and MAKEISO is implemented in 60613b. Thanks!

glentium Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 salamat kabayan!ish.. my original source CD from hp, slipstreamed with SP2, does not even come with those WIN**UPG folders.. But, of course, I'll get those folders if I manually slipstream SP2 (or "let HFSLIP do it, if I'm too lazy") to a pre-SP2 source...I agree that it is up to the user to copy or not the entire source. And if the user chose not to include, or delete those folders, then the user must not use the InstallRC=1 option.For this reason, I was thinking of a simple addition to the HFSLIP instructions that as a prerequisite for using InstallRC=1 option, winntupg folder must exists in the source..

Tomcat76 Posted June 14, 2006 Author Share Posted June 14, 2006 No -- The user should be able to enter "InstallRC=1" at any time without restrictions. My point was that the user should be allowed to copy the WINNTUPG folder *after* running HFSLIP.That the WINNTUPG folder is required for the RC to be installed will of course be mentioned on the "Special features" page (the only page that will refer to this functionality).

glentium Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 that sounds good... I'm testing HFSLIP now with the latest updates for Windows XP... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NtegrA Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Just a quickie (just in case no one reads my thread)...latest test rel. (060613b) with latest HFs for XP (7) with changes I made in my post works 100%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glentium Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 yup, same result here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super-Magician Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Congrats, Tomcat! You only needed a few hours of work this time !No -- The user should be able to enter "InstallRC=1" at any time without restrictions. My point was that the user should be allowed to copy the WINNTUPG folder *after* running HFSLIP.That the WINNTUPG folder is required for the RC to be installed will of course be mentioned on the "Special features" page (the only page that will refer to this functionality).All right, I understand.

Tomcat76 Posted June 14, 2006 Author Share Posted June 14, 2006 (edited) A new final is in the works. At this point, I don't intend to add more functionality except maybe a [FileFlags] section for Windows 2000.To be checked:- all new hotfixes should be supported on Win2K SP4, WinXP SP1, WinXP SP2 and Win2K3 SP1- KB911562 for MDAC 2.8 SP1- Win2K .ART extension support- USP5Any volunteers?
