I am looking to deploy XP w/SP2 through RIS. From what I understand, I need
to install XP to a system and then create a RIS image from that installation
using RIPrep. Is it possible to just use an unattended answer file and the
contents of an XP CD (with custom drivers) as the RIS image? I have
probably 20 different models of workstations and creating an image for each
one does not sound like the proper way to do this. I can create a custom
disc with all the drivers and everything on it, but I would really prefer to
not walk around to a few hundred workstations with media to in hand.
Maybe I have read the documentation wrong, this just does not seem right to
me. Is my view of RIS completely wrong?
Thanks!
