I've done alot of reading about this, and unless I'm misunderstanding something, anything in

/$OEM$/$1/install

in my installation source folder should be copied to the C:\install folder during a Windows installation. Even though its setup this way, the folder is not being copied during the installation. What am I missing?

EDIT: nevermind, it's been a long weekend. I figured out the problem.. I didn't have OEMPreinstall=yes in the answer file.

Check section [unattended] in file /i386/winnt.sif . There must be a line OemPreinstall=YES

Figured that part out, but if I put that line in there, will it disable the ability to do a Repair install with the CD?

Shouldn't do...

I think all you need are the upgrade folders on the CD
