Unattend Installation Problems

[Sandro Guimaraes de Brito]

Hi all,

I tried Unnatend Installation of WinXP Pro, but I have
some doubts:

NOTE: I slipstremed SP1 and Rollup 1.

1) Is it possible to force the installation on a specific drive ?
At first time, WinXP was installed in drive D:, second time
installed in drive F:....

2) In the very end of installation, it's asked to register the
product. Is it possible to perform this part unattended as well ?

Thanks in advance, any help will be great

Configuration:
AMD Athlon XP 2200

256 Mb RAM
HD1 60 Gb (C: - 10 Gb, E: - 50 Gb)
HD2 40 Gb (D: - 10 Gb, F: - 40 Gb)

Hello Sandro.

Yes. In your unattend.bat or unattend.cmd file, try the following

/syspart:drive_letter - tells what system you'd like to use this drive as
active bootable drive - you also need to use /tempdrive with the syspart
directive.

cheers,
joe
