just forget about RunOnce. Let me explain another way

Use WINNT.SIF to automate installation ( U can create this by http://unattended.msfn.org/)

Use OEMPreinstall=Yes

Create a folder at root of Ur XPCD named as $OEM$

now create a text file named as CMDLINES.TXT and this code in the file.

[Commands]
"LangPack.msi /q"

Copy Ur langPack as name specify in CMDLINES.TXT like LangPack.msi and copy that into $OEM$ folder and make bootable CD and try this one....

Have Fun

bbmak is talking about the extra languages you can install during Windows setup (Asian, etc) for Internet Explorer.

In his first post, he wrote:

They aren't called language packs, but OK.

These can be installed during Windows setup already. On the Regional Settings dialog, click the Languages tab and tick the checkboxes that need to be checked:

* complex script and right-to-left languages

* East Asian languages

I don't know how this can be done unattendedly. Someone else will have to drop in for that.
