unattended-installation hangs with errormessage if OemPreinstall=Yes

C

Carsten Krueger

Hi all,

i've a problem, my unattended setup hangs at "Installation von Windows" /
"Installation of Windows" at "Geräteinstallation" /
"Hardwareinstallation"(?) if the first third if I activate this:

OemPreinstall=Yes
[GuiUnattended]
OEMSkipWelcome=Yes

Without OemPreinstall the script works.

CD-structure is like that:
\i386
\$OEM$
whereas $OEM$ is empty

Any hints how to debug or to solve?

[PCHealth]

ER_Display_UI=1
ER_Enable_Applications=None
ER_Enable_Kernel_Errors=0
ER_Enable_Reporting=0
ER_Enable_Windows_Components=0
ER_Include_Shutdown_Errs=0
;disables error notification

[Shell]

DefaultStartPanelOff=Yes
;This tells Windows XP to use the Classic Start Menu, and displays the
;My Computer, My Documents icons as well as others on the Windows Desktop.
;If set to No, then the default Windows XP Start Menu is used.

DefaultThemesOff=Yes
;This tells Windows XP to use the Classic Theme. Note: This option overrides
;CustomDefaultThemeFile option when set to Yes.

[Data]

AutoPartition=0
;If you have the selection on 1 then Windows Setup will install the OS
;on any free partition that is available. If you remove this line or if
;you put AutoPartition=0 then setup will ask you on which partition you
;wish to install Windows onto and advises you what to do if your
;partition already contains an OS.

MsDosInitiated=0
;If this setting is on "0" it will inform Setup that you are installing
;from CD, put a value of 1 if you use only diskettes to boot.

AutomaticUpdates=yes
;This entry tells Setup to skip the Help Protect Your PC page that appears
;when setup is finished. (New in SP2).

[Unattended]

UnattendMode=ProvideDefault
;Specifies default answers in the answer file. In this case, Setup displays
;these default answers to the end user, who can change them if they are not
;appropriate.

OemSkipEula=Yes
;Setting this option to Yes will skip the EULA screen which you already read
;when you used Setup Manager. Setting this option to No will mean you have
;to press F8 on the keyboard to accept the license during text-mode Setup.

FileSystem=*
;If you prefer to manually choose a partition during text-mode setup with
;full control on choice of filesystem, add this entry to your winnt.sif file.

WaitForReboot=No
;Specifies whether the computer waits 15 seconds after GUI-mode Setup finishes.
;Choosing No will disable the 15 second wait.

DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore

;This is used in conjunction with OemPnPDriversPath.

DUDisable=Yes
;Yes
;Instructs Setup not to connect to the Windows Update site.
;No
;Instructs Setup to connect to the Windows Update site to download any
;available Windows XP Setup updates. Setup also downloads any necessary
;drivers that are not on the Windows XP CD-ROM.

OemPreinstall=Yes
; Determines whether a special subdirectory, \$OEM$, will be copied and
; certain sections will used during setup.

[GuiUnattended]

OEMSkipWelcome=Yes
; skip welcome page and new user creation
