The Installation Package Could Not Be Opened

[Lawrence Stromski]

Hi everyone,

I've just downloaded Windows XP Embedded edition using the
web install program, it deflated the cab files.
When I run setup.exe, i get the usual autorun dialogue,
and I click on "Remote Boot Setup"

It presents me with the error:
Windows Installer
The Installation Package Could Not Be Opened. Verify that
the package exists... bla bla bla

I've gone over the pre-requisits for XPe, and I do have
Script Host 5.6 and Installer 2.0. I'm thinkin I have a
corrupted download. Is this the most likely cause or is
there somthing else I'm missing?
(I'm completely new to XPe btw, so it's very possible I've
missed a vital step somewhere.)

Hope someone can help me.
(Wish microsoft would dispatch the XPe evaluation CD in
the UK.)

Regards,
-Lawrence Stromski.

Lawrence,

The install program is missing files. See my post/reply on
Oct 27 in the group for more info.
