You can put it - including the AppsRoot.txt - to the Vista DVD, too. But it's more convenient to have all these seperat files on a USB flash drive in my opinon.this was on the guide page link you posted youve just not noticed it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coucou Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Hello coucou! I put it through Winword Spelling and GrammarThat was a good idea! Great work so far but I would print the whole batch files or remove them completly. For the moment it makes no sense and wasting a lot of space if you just have half of the cmd.Thanks!MartinHere the .pdf build corrected with the print of the whole batch files1645 K / 121 pageshttp://rapidshare.com/files/31459800/FireGeier_Unattended_Vista_Guide_2.rarpass: coucouEnjoycoucou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smsc Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 (edited) @Martin and @all:Just F.Y.I.WSIM must be close first to use pkgmgr.exe command.That's Why I've got an error during integration proces (four posts above) Edited May 16, 2007 by smsc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireGeier Posted May 16, 2007 Author Share Posted May 16, 2007 Hello smsc!Thanks, for the feedback. I'll try to reproduce that on my system and will add a note, if same problem will come up here.Thanks again!Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idbirch2 Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Hi Martin, this is a really great guide, I would have been completely lost without it. Maybe I need to get used to it but it seems to me that the WAIK is way more complicated than it should be, the principle of mounting an image and adding modules is not that complex but Microsoft have somehow managed to make it feel incredibly complicated. Anyway, back on topic, I'm stuck! I'm trying to integrate Windows Updates into my install and I'm up to "Step 5: Importing update packages to WSIM". Where is the distribution folder that I'm meant to select? What is BDD? The guide says I can make any new folder but if I do this, I get "The selected folder is not a valid distribution share". Any tips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireGeier Posted May 16, 2007 Author Share Posted May 16, 2007 Hello idbirch2!The introduction explains, what BDD 2007 is. If you don't have it installed now, don't install it. It's not necessary to get the updates part to work.But you're right the guide is missing a little step here. If you don't have an Distribution Share folder already, you need to choose Create Distribution Share... from Tools menu in WSIM. And there you can choose any folder.Regards,Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodswalker Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 (edited) I have been following the guide, and everything seems to work fine until I reach step 8. Once I enter the code for running pkgmgr.exe, nothing happens. No sandbox folder or log is created. If I run Echo %errorlevel%, I get the number 3. This happens with WSIM open as well as closed. Any ideas, or is that enough info?I am far from being a tech, just enjoy the learning curve involved. So go easy me, Edited May 17, 2007 by woodswalker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireGeier Posted May 17, 2007 Author Share Posted May 17, 2007 Hello woodswalker!Do you have created a Sandbox folder before executing pkgmgr.exe?Regards,Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodswalker Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 I tried it with a Sandbox folder created before running the integrating code. Actually the result was a return to the command prompt, with no action being accomplished. Running the ECHO %errorlevel% showed the number 3.
