The_Dude_1978 Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Hi There, me dutch here.I hope somebody understands where i'm going wrong. The hotfixes dont'install.I've been working on 2 automated installations of xp corperate. One dutch and one English.The Dutch one works. The English one does not.I have an orginal cd with sp2 kopied to the network hard drive at my work. Therefor i need an easy installation, definetly not nlite based! For future processes.I deleted all unnessecary maps like lang, 98upgrade components etc. I also removed the d2, d3 and d3 at the directories in dosnet inf. I made an map in i386 called svcpack and placed the updates in it. With qchain.exeIn the DOSNET.INF I placed:[Version]signature="$Windows NT$"DriverVer=07/01/2001,5.1.2600.2180[Directories]d1 = \i386[OptionalSrcDirs]svcpack[Miscellaneous]ProductType = 0I made svcpack.inf and Deleted SVCPACK.IN_In the svcpack.inf I placed:;Windows XP[Version] Signature="Windows NT$"MajorVersion=5MinorVersion=1BuildNumber=2600[setupData]CatalogSubDir="\i386\svcpack"[ProductCatalogsToInstall][setupHotfixesToRun]MPSETUP.exe /Q:A /R:NKB885626.exe /q /n /zKB873339.exe /q /n /zKB885835.exe /q /n /zKB885836.exe /q /n /zKB886185.exe /q /n /zKB888302.exe /q /n /zKB890046.exe /q /n /zKB890830.exe /extract:%windir%\system32\inetsrv\ /q KB890859.exe /q /n /zKB891781.exe /q /n /zKB893756.exe /q /n /zKB893803.exe /q /n /zKB894391.exe /q /n /zKB896358.exe /q /n /zKB896423.exe /q /n /zKB896424.exe /q /n /zKB896428.exe /q /n /zKB898461.exe /q /n /zKB899587.exe /q /n /zKB899589.exe /q /n /zKB899591.exe /q /n /zKB900485.exe /q /n /zKB900725.exe /q /n /zKB901017.exe /q /n /zKB901214.exe /q /n /zKB902400.exe /q /n /zKB904706.exe /q /n /zKB905414.exe /q /n /zKB905474.exe /q /n /zKB905749.exe /q /n /zKB908519.exe /q /n /zKB908531.exe /q /n /zKB910437.exe /q /n /zKB911280.exe /q /n /zKB911562.exe /q /n /zKB911564.exe /q /n /zKB911567.exe /q /n /zKB911927.exe /q /n /zKB912919.exe /q /n /zKB913433.exe /Q:A /R:NKB913580.exe /q /n /zKB914388.exe /q /n /zKB914389.exe /q /n /zKB916595.exe /q /n /zKB917159.exe /q /n /zKB917344.exe /q /n /zKB917422.exe /q /n /zKB917734.exe /q /n /zKB917953.exe /q /n /zKB918439.exe /q /n /zKB918899.exe /q /n /zKB919007.exe /q /n /zKB920214.exe /q /n /zKB920670.exe /q /n /zKB920683.exe /q /n /zKB920685.exe /q /n /zKB920872.exe /q /n /zKB921398.exe /q /n /zKB921883.exe /q /n /zKB922582.exe /q /n /zKB922616.exe /q /n /zqchain.exeEverytime I run setup everything else installs flawless via cmdlines.txt, except the hotfixes.I've done about 18 installations without luck. And not in virtual pc. With no luck. Where i was at home it's done in two times.I just can't figure out what went wrong that it is not installing the updates.Who sees the problem? (and will help me...)Greetings The_Dude_1978 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ctrl-X Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Hi There, me dutch here.Same here In the DOSNET.INF I placed:[Version]signature="$Windows NT$"DriverVer=07/01/2001,5.1.2600.2180[Directories]d1 = \i386[OptionalSrcDirs]svcpack[Miscellaneous]ProductType = 0The only lines you need to add to dosnet.inf are[OptionalSrcDirs]svcpackWhy did you make the other changes?In the svcpack.inf I placed:;Windows XP[Version] Signature="Windows NT$"This line should read:Signature="$Windows NT$"So there's two dollar signs in the signature string, one at the beginning and one at the end. In fact I think I posted this before... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Dude_1978 Posted October 26, 2006 Author Share Posted October 26, 2006 (edited) Hi There,Why i did make other changes? You mean in dosnet.inf?Well to shorten my xpcd down in mb i deleted some maps like components, tabletpc etc. Therefore the reference of directories dosnet.inf searches in like d1, d2 and d3 (directory 1,2 and 3) are unneccesary to be loaded into memory. If there could be a error I made sure it does'nt popup.As for the svcpack.inf it bothered me that KB890830.exe was giving a popup for extraction. So I helped windows a hand by adding this command "/extract:%windir%\system32\inetsrv\ /q" and it does work.But there was no manner testing it without the hotfixes installing.Greetz,The_Dude_1978 Edited October 26, 2006 by The_Dude_1978 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Dude_1978 Posted October 26, 2006 Author Share Posted October 26, 2006 Well thanks Ctrl-X and oioldman It worked like a charm. Finally and i'm glad.Just hope you can help me out with one more thing. Everything installs okay except the windows installer 3.1.It's the KB893803.exe that does'nt install. What am i doing wrong?Greetz,The_Dude_1978 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oioldman Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 that should be okmake sure it is the first in the svcpack.inf and use swicthes of /q /n /z or/quiet /nobackup /norestart and you should be okif that still doesn't work, you could use the /integrate switch on this one to get it added Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything installs okay except the windows installer 3.1.It's the KB893803.exe that does'nt install. What am i doing wrong?Check the log file (should be in the Windows folder) for errors.
