Topic: DriverPack Base - Silent/Unattended Command line install/setup

Hey!
The title says it all really!
Ive made a batch file to do the whole processes from ripping, nlite, adding stuff in, blah blah blah, everything but DriverPack sad
Is there a way to do this?

Thanks

Re: DriverPack Base - Silent/Unattended Command line install/setup

make a copy of your base.ini say auto.ini

set GUI = "no" in auto.ini

call dp_base.exe /settings:auto.ini

doing this will run base silently -

If you wish to have the progress window you will need to
submit your public program for approval...
and apply for API privileges with Bâshrat the Sneaky.

RVM Integrator is already on the API list
If you are useing that program you may call base from the advanced window of the Integrator
On the 'optional parameters' line add
/settings:XPpro.ini
or whatever INI you have pre-prepared for your 'location' 
no need to modify the GUI setting if you do it this way and you will get the progress window too.


Does that help?

PS this is not a feature request this is a help and support issue - topic moved to correct forum

Re: DriverPack Base - Silent/Unattended Command line install/setup

Thanks for that, its now hidden (would of been nice to have a process bar, or a stats windows, but I can live without!). I cant code to do it tongue
My new question is now, at the end, ive got a pop up, saying how long it took - can this be disabled?

I like to use only the minimum number of prgrams, and I haven't gotten on well with RVM Integrator...

Yes it does help, and thanks for moving it!

Re: DriverPack Base - Silent/Unattended Command line install/setup

no you cannot have API privileges as an individual.
you must use an approved program like RVM, nLite or AutoImage

PS 90% of our users do use RVM and the other 10% don't use the english versions of windows. wink

perhaps you need some help with RVM integtrator?

Re: DriverPack Base - Silent/Unattended Command line install/setup

Hey!
Im using nLite at the mo (who isn't!), so how would I go about using that then?
Ive TRIED RVM, but it didn't work for me...(AGAIN)
Ive tired this:
"%TOOLS%\Hotfixes\RVM_Integrator_1.5.3.exe" /Source:"%PATH%\XPProSP2" /Optimize:+ /OptimizeOnly /Cache:- /ShowWindows:+ /Advanced:+ /advDebug:- /LeaveOpen:- /Integrate /RunFile:"%TOOLS%\Drivers\DPs_BASE.exe" /RunParams:"/settings:%TOOLS%\Drivers\ProSP2.ini"
btw do I set RunParams to base.ini (its my multidisk one), or do I do it for that OS one (ProSP2.ini)


The error message is:
Error No entries in *.ini found
Any ideas?

Re: DriverPack Base - Silent/Unattended Command line install/setup

there is a bug in rvm 1.5.3 that prevents it from calling driverpacks in API mode.

I am on the development team with siginet for the Integrator... this will be fixed in the next release.

I am still useing 1.4.3 as it is still the most stable version

I only use 1.5.3 for testing purposes - not for live machines.
