XP PRO UPGRADE unattended clean install USING Win98 qualifying product

M

mark.mioduszewski

Greetings,
I have Windows 98 Full original CD and also a Windows XP Pro Upgrade
CD.
I have made a successful unnattended XP DVD that installs everything
near perfectly. My question to you is:

How can I avoid swapping my XP DVD out of the drive with my Windows 98
CD in order to verify that I qualify for the upgrade? Is there a
workaround for this?

This is my only hangup in order to make my DVD truly unattended.

Thank you.

You would need to purchase a "Full Version" of
Windows XP in order to resolve your issue.
