OGreenOLeaf Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 Im trying to get an understanding of how code like this...ECHO.ECHO Installing Windows Media Player 9ECHO Please wait...start /wait %systemdrive%\install\WMP9\MPSetupXP.exe /Q:A /R:Ncan find the $OEM$/$1$/install directory, since its not pointing to it?thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaosratt Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 $OEM$/1$/... I think, not $1$. Maybe its $1, but I know $1$ is wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OGreenOLeaf Posted August 4, 2003 Author Share Posted August 4, 2003 thanks. but my main questioning is how does <code>ECHO.ECHO Installing Windows Media Player 9ECHO Please wait...start /wait %systemdrive%\install\WMP9\MPSetupXP.exe /Q:A /R:N</code>link to $oem$/$1??in other words how does the winnt file know where the batch files are. and how does the batch files find the exe files. because it doesnt seem to be showing the entire file maybe im just a nut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 the $1 folder tells Windows Setup to copy all files and folders to the root of the systemdrive (C:\ for most people). \$1\install\ will become C:\Install\But you do need to add OemPreinstall=Yes under [unattended] in winnt.sif for this to work.
