adminpak installation fail with UBCD4Win + unattended 2003

[yuzu_yen]

I've created a UBCD4Win + unattended 2003 R2 installation DVD.

After booting the DVD, a partitioning script and winnt32.exe will be executed for fully automated 2003 R2 installation with auto partitioning. Installation went OK. The problem is when I try to install adminpak, it asks for a MS 2003 Server installation Disc. If I proceed without /unattended: option and do normal attended installation. This problem will not show. Anyone knows why or have the same experience?

Here are the winnt32 commands I tried:

d:\w2k3r2\i386\winnt32.exe /syspart:c: /tempdrive:c /unattend:"d:\unattended.txt" /makelocalsource /noreboot

d:\w2k3r2\i386\winnt32.exe /syspart:c: /tempdrive:c /makelocalsource /noreboot

If no one has seen such problem, any suggestion on how to debug this?

I did a diff with the files under c: created after running winnt32.exe. Found that OriSrc in "c:\$WIN_NT.~BT\winnt.sif" was set to "A:\I386" instead of the correct value "X:\w2k3r2" when run winnt32.exe with unattended: option. Change this back to correct value fixed the problem.

Does anyone know why this wrong value is generated?
