Unattended vista installation Target Windows Directory

[digitalmedia34]

Hi guys

Im trying to create my first unattended vista installation file and I want to change Target Windows Directory to be "WIN."

Does anyone have any ideas as to how to do this????

Just like in other windows installation one can specify the directory to where the system files will be installed, maybe I can do the same with vista but in the answerfile. Is this still possible?

No, it's not that easy with Vista, cause there is no real installation procedure anymore. That means that the folder structure of the later Vista OS is already present inside install.wim. Setup is just extracting this folder structure to your target system and does some configuration (drivers etc.). So, changing the Windows directory would be more complicated.

Don't missunderstand: I don't say that it's impossible but it's not that easy defenetly.
