I'm using nlite to create an unattended XP Pro install disk. I'm using XUpdatePack_v3.0.0.7z for the security updates and adding a few drivers also. Everything seems to work fine but when I load/run the image that I made on a virtual machine the error "The file ntkrnlpa.exe was not copied correctly.". I'm able to just push Esc and skip copying this file and XP seems to run and work fine once installed but if I have to push Esc it's not really an unattended installation.

I think it's a file in the XUpdatePack_v3.0.0.7 (rar file?) that contains all the updates. Is it possible to open this file with winrar and just deleted the ntkrnlpa.exe file there? Then run nlite again and have it run properly?

Here's a screenshot (poor quality due to 200Kb limit) of the error screen if it helps...

Download the Xupdatepackage again, it was fixed this weekend.

Thank-you
