Ctrl-X Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 After you have built the basic RIS CD image, there should be a default RISTNDRD.SIF in the i386\templates folder. You can edit this one or replace it with your own (the name doesn't matter). The $OEM$ folder structure should be next to the i386 folder, not inside it. So in the \\<server>\REMINST\Setup\<language>\Images\<image> folder, you should have a $OEM$ and an i386 folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lolita Posted October 6, 2006 Author Share Posted October 6, 2006 (edited) Thanks! It woks exactly how i wanted it to work and it will save me a lot of time. (:My last (i hope it is last (: ) question is - Can i somehow modify preinstaller wzzard to set computer name manualy? Because if it create it on its own i don't have computer in AD as i want it IE laptop name in workstation OU. I can live with that it place computers only to one OU, but i want it named "correctly".

Ctrl-X Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 You'll need to modify the Default Domain Policy to enable custom setup. Here's how: How to Modify the Default Group Policy for Remote Installation Services Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ideas how to fix it?That happens when all possible Choice Options have been disabled. You'll need to set "Custom Setup" to "Enabled" and all other options to "Disabled" or "Not configured". Also make sure there's no other GPO below the domain level that is overwriting these settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oioldman Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 i know that the screen you have set is available twice from within AD,not sure of both locations, but 1 is under domain controllers (server) and the other is under the domain name at top of treesorry if little vague am at work and don't have access to double check.
