I have problems in my .cmd file, i want to launch successively office 2000 install, then 1st patch and so on, but it seems that all installs at the same time ..

the syntax i have is

start /wait \\darkstar\installs\CD\i386\$OEM$\office\install.exe /qb-
start /wait \\darkstar\installs\CD\i386\$OEM$\o2kupd\29032000frproo2k.exe /Q

and so on ...

I wasn't able yet to find a way to fix it.

I'm running Win2K install from CD with a floppy containing winnt.sif and runonce.cmd file, my winnt.sif contains a section called

[GuiRunOnce]

Command0="a:\runonce.cmd"

Thanks

are you trying to exicute those from your network? If not then you need it to be like this.

start /wait %systemdrive%\installs\CD\i386\$OEM$\office\install.exe /qb-

start /wait %systemdrive%\installs\CD\i386\$OEM$\o2kupd\29032000frproo2k.exe /Q

if you are trying to do install those from a networked computer I dont think there is a way or at least it is beyond my scope.

Hello, yes, i have been trying through a network share. I will have maybe to make a two CD installation method. I have to put all the things under \i386\$OEM$ right ? I'll have to check that.

Btw an ancient driver of my previous modem managed to make SP1 crash my XP. That was funny.

sure let me know if you want scripts for 2 cd I have done them already.

Heh

Sure i would be very much interested. The thing is, i want to deploy after Win2K the following apps : Office2K Pro, Office 2K fixes, Symantec Antivirus Client, Acrobat Reader 6, Directx 9.0b (but i need a french one who can do silent install), WMP 9.0 .. and then, all the insane hotfixes for all these great things ;o)

But that'll be my job.

Almost all my computers at work need the following drivers installed :

ATI Rage 128 3D

VIA AC'97 Sound

VIA 4inOne drivers (Motherboard, Ide, Agp ..)

I wasn't able to find a way to get a setup.iss out of that. The two first are installshields and the 3rd one is a package-for-the-web installshield, extracting its files somewhere.

Thanks for the help bro
