Fiddling with the Windows 98 Disk

[Doctor Trout]

Hey guys,

I'm very much a child of the Windows 2000 and XP generation, but I need to install Windows 98SE on an old computer. I've got a disc, and I've had a look... and it's all a bit alien to me. But, I was wondering is there a way of removing components from it and making an unattended install, rather than having to go through command prompts and stuff?

I presume there's no programme like nLite for Windows 98... but where do I start playing with my disc?

Cheers for any help.

There's a program (not free) called 98lite that will do this somewhat, but if you want to do it manually then the install process basically contains a bunch of script INF files that you can edit with a text editor.

but it's not make unattended setup (install then remove component and why don't remove component then install like nlite did?)
