Not yet unattended, some leftovers...

[JulesKr]

I created an Unattended CD image, but I'm left with some manual screens. The first is a confirmation of a change in screen resolution, a welcome screen, a automatic update screen, a internet connection check sreen, a registration screen (not serial, but registering at microsoft as a user), an add user screen (although there is a oobe.ini file, but I've to check on the location... and an error stating it's unable to execute c:\install\scripts\install.cmd

Who can help me to solve this?

winnt.sif is as follows

I created an Unattended CD image, but I'm left with some manual screens.

The first is a confirmation of a change in screen resolution,

Add "AutoConfirm=1" to the [Display] section.

a welcome screen,

Add "UnattendSwitch=Yes" to the [unattended] section.

a automatic update screen, a internet connection check sreen, a registration screen (not serial, but registering at microsoft as a user), an add user screen (although there is a oobe.ini file, but I've to check on the location... and an error stating it's unable to execute c:\install\scripts\install.cmd

Most of these should be solved by setting UnattendSwitch to Yes (see above). The Install.cmd probably isn't executed because you've set EncryptedAdminPassword to Yes. This disables the Autologon feature.

Ok, that did the trick. I also solved my *.cmd installation issues. I found out that extreme long names were not copied correctly. And I no longer kick-off the installation script (install.cmd) using the winnt.sif file, but I put the needed files accompanied with a cmdlines.txt file in $oem$ and then it runs fine, even if there is a password on the administrator. Cool.
