@Firegeier,

your autounattend.xml and the unattend.xml worked like a charm.

The only mistake i made was placing my modified unattend.xml in a folder called panther\unattend during the Window PE phase.

The advantage of that is that it takes precedence over the autounattend.xml on the dvd. The disadvantage of that was that it also took precedence over the sysprep unattend.xml, making it get into kind of a loop.

Adding a runsynchronous command to the audituser phase that deletes the unattend.xml from the panther\unattend folder fixed the problem.

Thx firegeier, appreciate the help.

@Ruud:

Thanks for the feedback. BTW I would never recommend to replace unattend.xml inside Panther dir/subdir. This can end up very confusing and is not recommended by MS, too.

@zedox:

I've found three things:

no 1:

2007-05-31 11:22:35, Info						 [setupugc.exe] Finished executing [cmd /c %AppsRoot%\Install\"Software Files"\"7-Zip 4.46 (beta)"\"7-Zip 4.46 (alpha).cmd"] synchronously
2007-05-31 11:22:35, Info						 [setupugc.exe] Process returned with exit code 0x1

Seems to me that this cmd is not executed - might be caused by the brackets.

no 2:

2007-05-31 11:35:13, Info						 [msoobe.exe] No display mode found that matches criteria

Your system seems to have problems, if you don't set the refresh rate. So please set the refresh rate. BTW my system is comming up with the same error if I set the refresh rate inside xml file. So I'm forced not to set the refresh rate. :wacko:

But both errors should not cause your main problem.

no 3:

2007-05-31 11:28:56, Info						 [windeploy.exe] ------------------------------------------------
2007-05-31 11:28:56, Info						 [windeploy.exe] WinDeploy.exe launched with command-line []...
2007-05-31 11:28:56, Info						 [windeploy.exe] Setup has not completed, adding pending reboot.
2007-05-31 11:28:56, Info						 [windeploy.exe] UnattendSearchExplicitPath: Found unattend file at [C:\Windows\Panther\unattend.xml]; examining for applicability.

This section differs from my result. It follows the application installation section. I don't have the Flush here. My system just reboots and than goes on executing specialize pass of unattend.xml. But your specialize pass is not executed - so CopyProfile can't run - and system boots right to oobe pass.

I suspect one of your installation cmds causing a delay which is causing the flush. I could imagine that one of your cmds is still running while setup is trying to execute sysprep.exe /generalize. Could you please verfiy that.

Regards,

Martin

EDIT:

The Flush could be caused by some hardware, which is not installed during setup, too. Do you may use some hardware, which Vista does not detect/install the drivers for? Than remove it for test or if you can't remove install the drivers during setup.

If this still does not help out you should recreate both xml files "manually" using WSIM.

no 1:

2007-05-31 11:22:35, Info						 [setupugc.exe] Finished executing [cmd /c %AppsRoot%\Install\"Software Files"\"7-Zip 4.46 (beta)"\"7-Zip 4.46 (alpha).cmd"] synchronously
2007-05-31 11:22:35, Info						 [setupugc.exe] Process returned with exit code 0x1

Seems to me that this cmd is not executed - might be caused by the brackets.

This was my error... the directory is named 7-Zip 4.46 (alpha) but the autounattend is looking for 7-Zip 4.46 (beta)! woops :whistle:

Anyways going to try removing all RunSynchronousCommand's except the registry tweaks file... to see if it is any of the installs that are "holding" it up.

Cheers for being so patient! :hello:

EDIT:

ok, i've tested it now.. still doesnt work...

Here are the error logs,

Hello zedox!

OK... we need to check now, if your registry tweaks are applied at all. So please remove the following lines from your Autounattend.xml:

 <RunSynchronousCommand wcm:action="add">
<Order>120</Order>
<Path>%WINDIR%\system32\sysprep\sysprep.exe /generalize /quiet /oobe /reboot /unattend:%AppsRoot%\Install\Unattend.xml</Path>
<Description>Restarting</Description>
</RunSynchronousCommand>

Setup will stop in audit mode now and the second unattend.xml will not be executed. So you can check, if the tweaks are applied before copying the profile - you may need to do a reboot after setup has finished.

If the tweaks are not applied, it means that there is something wrong with the path to your .reg file. If they would be applied, than please let me know.

BTW, do you use an original Ultimate version or was it captured before or edited using vlite?

Regards,

Martin

Afternoon Firegeier!

I have reg tweaks in all of the cmd files that are ran... the installs seem to work in them so I don't think its a problem with the paths!

Umm, I am using a "vlited" Vista Ultimate, however I have tested on an Original disc and it didnt work. :(

Will try removing that section and see what happens! Hopefully we'll figure this out!

I think I've found it... and it makes no sense...

Now the setup command line within this batch file works, but the reg commands dont...

<RunSynchronousCommand wcm:action="add">	
<Order>20</Order>
<Path>cmd /c %AppsRoot%\Install\"Software Files"\"7-Zip 4.46 (alpha)"\"7-Zip 4.46 (alpha).cmd"</Path>
<Description>Installing 7-zip 4.46 (alpha)</Description>
</RunSynchronousCommand>

when changed to this, it works!...

<RunSynchronousCommand wcm:action="add">	
<Order>20</Order>
<Path>cmd /c "%AppsRoot%\Install\Software Files\7-Zip 4.46 (alpha)\7-Zip 4.46 (alpha).cmd"</Path>
<Description>Installing 7-zip 4.46 (alpha)</Description>
</RunSynchronousCommand>

Running tests now to see if it will all work in one single autounattend.xml

Woop!

Hi, zedox!

Well this is what I've tried to explain in the post here. :whistle:

Do you set your user tweaks within the cmds? Than it would be interesting to have a look at these cmds, too.

Regards,

Martin

yyeeee I know, but the setups ran fine so couldn't (and still cant) see why the reg tweaks in the SAME file dont apply!! hmmm, well still testing my scritps. To be fair, the post you pointed out said I shouldn't have spaces in the paths... but I still do :P

Thanks for all your help, looks like we've cracked it! :D
