Laus_Sane Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 Hmm if i need more space on the unattended XP CD I use winrar to compress the files or folders.Then copy the unrar.exe (in the winrar root folder) in your $1 folder to extract the compress files.I use this method by Office XP:compress: 200MBwithout compress >=500MBBefore I start the setup file from office I extract the rar file:main_batch.cmd:%systemdrive%\install\unrar.exe x -o+ %systemdrive%\install\office\office.rar *.* %systemdrive%\install\...start /wait %systemdrive%\install\office\PROPLUS.MSI /QBThat's all its not a big problem but it need a little bit longer.Sorry for my bad english but I think you can understand this method. )Bye Laus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spheris Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 Not advisable to remove the UPG dir, can work for clean installs but does break upgrade and or repair support~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaosratt Posted August 3, 2003 Share Posted August 3, 2003 True, it does remove the Upgrade ability and possibly the repair ability as well. But if all you want is a basic 'unattended' install cd, then your proly not going to be upgrading right? If you want to upgrade, then just use your original cd, as your going to want to watch its pogress most likely ( I know I would).EDIT: some spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
