IntelliQ Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 After waiting 39 minutes for xp to finish installing on VMware, i get to these errors:"Cannot find C:\install\main_batch.cmd""Cannot find C:\install\hotfixes.cmd""Cannot find C:\install\applications.cmd"Inside my winnt.sif (which is placed in the I386 folder), the relevent section looks like this:[GuiRunOnce]%systemdrive%\$OEM$\$1\$INSTALL\main_batch.cmd%systemdrive%\$OEM$\$1\$INSTALL\hotfixes.cmd%systemdrive%\$OEM$\$1\$INSTALL\applications.cmdInside my "TEST.ISO", the structure is as follows:WXPFPP_EN -$OEM$ | --$1 | --$DRIVERS --$INSTALL | --APPLICATIONS --HOTFIXES --TOOLS --main_batch.cmd --hotfixes.cmd --applications.cmdThe finished installation in VMware shows:MY COMPUTER | ---Local Disk (C:) | --$DRIVERS --$INSTALL | --main_batch.cmd --hotfixes.cmd --applications.cmd --HOTFIXES --TOOLSI noticed there is no $OEM$ or $1 folder on my local disk (C drive) on my vmware emualtion, perhaps there isnt supposed to be .........Im confused as to why windows cant see the path to my *.cmd files.Any ideas?

b0r3d Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 There isnt supposed to be a dollar sign infront of the INSTALL directory Or the DRIVERS directory for that matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 Also, check if you have OEMPreInstall=Yes listed in winnt.sif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IntelliQ Posted September 4, 2003 Author Share Posted September 4, 2003 There isnt supposed to be a dollar sign infront of the INSTALL directory Or the DRIVERS directory for that matter.From the guide: http://www.MSFN.org/unattended/xp/gettingstarted.htm..........you want to install extras such as the drivers, applications, hotfixes and such, then create the following directories in the XPCD folder:C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\install\C:\XPCD\$OEM$\$1\drivers\So, that is what I did.I do have OEMPreinstall=YES.
