Starting Win2K Unattended Network Install from WinPE 2.0

[nightmare99]

Hi Experts,

We currently install Win2K over our network from WinPE 1.5 booted from RIS and it works well, now I'm trying to move it to WinPE2.0 booting from WDS, when Winnt32.exe goes to run it gives the error "Windows 2000 setup could not detect the current verison od windows" <(or something similar)

Below is our startnet.cmd from the old PE that works well,

@echo off

regsvr32 /s netcfgx.dll

factory -minint

netcfg -v -winpe

net start dhcp

net start nla

DISKPART /S CLEAN.SCR

FORMAT C: /FS:NTFS /V: /Q /Y

NET USE Z: \\riserver\win2000dist "" /user:install.local\guest

REM next command is one long line:

Z:\WINNT32.EXE /S:Z:\ /UNATTEND:Z:\unattend.txt /syspart:c: /tempdrive:c: /noreboot

REM reboot

EXIT

If anybody could let me know what I need to do to get the the Win2K setup running from within WinPE2.0 that would be fantastic.

Thanks

You have to modify the registry when you build your WinPE2.0 image
