Re: Hangup at T-13

Well, I don't think it's DriverPacks anymore...

After having had it out of my disk for some time now, I began having "freeze" issues at T-12 again.  It seems to be rather random, sometimes it doesn't freeze, other times it does.  It's all rather confusing.  I think it's cmdlines.txt, so I'm just going to empty it and stick everything in guirunonce in my winnt.sif file.


But thanks anyways everyone!

You seem to have found a bug though - please report it in the bug tracker so I won't forget to fix it.

Have you narrowed it down any further already?

I signed up for an account, but every time I try to log in to report it, it tells me that I am not allowed or something.

@ TigerC,
the dutch pack for RVM had a bug in june.. it is apparently fixed, and I have used it without hiccups.

I cannot reproduce what you report.

The answer was 42?
Kind regards, Jaak.

Re: Hangup at T-13

...  Jaak, I've said it twice already but I guess you didn't catch it.

I am not using the RVM packs anymore.  I started with it, but then when I had this problem I just went and grabbed all of the updates myself and streamlined them through nLite. smile



I think it has to do with CMDLINES.TXT, I think if I empty that out it will not have issues.  It's worth a shot I think.

Re: Hangup at T-13

Okay, so what editor do you all use for CMDLINES.TXT - I suspect that it has to do with my editor putting something else in there that I don't see that breaks my windows installer.

Re: Hangup at T-13

Good ole Notepad does splendid job for me ususally.

Using Notepad 2 or Notepad++ if the file become a bit too big for the MS programme to handle, though...

Just mind the encoding options...

Re: Hangup at T-13

I downloaded all of the updates from MS through their windows update catalog.  I only streamlined the ones that worked, some of them produced errors or didn't make sense - that took about 4 or 5 disks before I could break it down to only the updates that worked (some of the downloaded updates were to things that weren't installed - like .NET or Office).


Anyway, I have confirmed it - CMDLINES.TXT was the issue.  Although I don't know why it would randomly cause problems the way it did.  Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't.  Very strange.  Anyway - it all works now.  I'm going to attempt to streamline the drivers one last time - I know where to come if it doesn't work wink



EDIT:

*thumbs up* Problem Resolved!  DriverPacks successfully installs.  I still don't know why it was so random before, but w/e - it works now.
