calling WPI from the cmdlines.txt in the $OEM$ folder

[gbmolina]

hi, i still can't find the exact answer to my question. I have a wpi.cmd file placed in the $OEM$ dir of my future nLited unattended installation of winXP sp2. I want to call on first gui boot WPI.hta. I have configured everything and I have the WPI in the root dir of the CD. my question is:

what do exactly I have to write in the cmdlines.txt file?

"wpi.cmd"

or something else?

this is the contant of the wpi.cmd:

cmdow @ /HID
@ECHO OFF

for /f "delims=: tokens=1" %%i in ("%~dp0") do set drive=%%i:
set wpipath=%drive%\wpi

SET KEY=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx

REG ADD %KEY%\999 /V 1 /D "%wpipath%\WPI.hta" /f

EXIT

%WPIPATH%\Install\

please, can anyone answer exactly to the question and not to give me alternative workarounds?

Why in the heck cant you just look at the example %oem% file provided (Like was suggested before)????

YES JUST ENTER WPI.CMD in cmdlines.txt and have it and wpi.cmd in your %OEM% folder.

I'm sorry, I did not find those examples that you're telling me. I know how annoying it could be to ask stupid questions, but I really don't know where that example is and I'm sure it is not in the help file of the program.

by the way, if you're not too annoyed, can you tell me if I have to include quote marks? i.e., what do I write:

wpi.cmd

or

"wpi.cmd"

thanks

Either or it doesn't matter. Usually you only use quotes when there are spaces in the name.
