East Asian Language Support (unattended , silent)

[Guest]

Hello,

I am trying to install East Asian Language Support silently, unattended from
the command line on top of a pre-existing English XP system.

The articles I have looked up have me using winnt32.exe with language
switches and other type switches. I tried it, but I think this is meant for
installing a brand new XP operating system along with the East Asian Language
support at the same time.

I actually want to install "only" the East Asian Language Support files from
the command line in unattended fashion. Then I am going to script the
Windows XP MUI and Office 2K3 MUI installations for Chinese Simplified, and
Chinese Traditional, and Japanese. I think the "MUI" unattended command
switches are easier to figure out, but I don't understand what to do for the
East Asian Language Support which I know should probably go first.

Thank you,

David

Hi

Using sysocmgr.exe with an answer file might work, many of the things
you can do in unattended.txt during an OS installation can be done
with sysocmgr.exe later on:
