RIS - XP

Guest

I made a flat slipstreamed cd image on my RIS server, and i am able to run it from PXE and install it on my computer. But when i run riprep, after NOT doing any changes at all, i get the error message "Missing CD Image on server", and that the server that contains the image does not match. And another thing a am wondering about is if the XP CD i have is a WLM or retail. All i know is i dont have to activate my XP Pro on that CD i have. Thanx in advance

This message usual indicates the original RIS image on the server and the
RIPREP image differ either by service pack or hotfix.

Brendon, thank you very much for your reply, but i guess you didnt get me question, i havent done anything at all. i just rolled it out from CD-image, and after trying to riprep it back to the RIS server, i get the "Missing CD Image on server", and that the server that contains the image does not match. -error. So my guess is that maybe there is i type of XP cd i have to use. Either the retail type or another type. And please if anyone could direct me what the correct cd could be. And what is the difference between them. All i know is i dont have to activate my XP Pro on that CD i have. Does it mean that this is the right chois?

Hi Astrit,

You need volume license media, not retail. You usually need to activate
retail but not volume media. Do you have the latest version of the RIPREP
tool installed?
