Topic: IMPLEMENTED: M2: if some files present in $OEM$ dir, set OemPreinstall

Hi Bashrat,

just found out that your new driverpack slipstream process must somehow have broken the $OEM$ folder copy process during Windows installation.

All the content of this folder is not being copied to C:, Windows dir oder Programs folder anymore (contents of $1,$$,$Docs and $Progs dirs) . It worked fine before and I have not changed anything except slipstreaming the newest driverpacks with the latest base 6.05.2

By the way ... is it normal that method 2 creates a OEM folder next to the $OEM$ folder in the installation root ? Maybe thats the problem (I never used method 2 before, always method 1)

Thanks for your help !!!
Bye,
Alex

What did you change in winnt.sif ? I cannot find any difference between the original and the new one ;-)

Re: IMPLEMENTED: M2: if some files present in $OEM$ dir, set OemPreinstall

THe folder OEM is normal for method 2 !

how you integrated the packs : the order. After your creation of $OEM$ ?

Make intgération before add your $OEM$

Re: IMPLEMENTED: M2: if some files present in $OEM$ dir, set OemPreinstall

Hi Vier

thanks for the answer.

mhh, making the slipstream process before creating the $OEM$ folder is out of the question because this folder stays the same all the time while the driverpacks change frequently so I would have to recreate the $OEM$ folder each time I slipstream the driverpacks ?

That cannot be the solution ;-)

Also ... what do you mean by "create" ? It is just a folder that has some files in it ;-) There is nothing to recreate ;-)

Anyway, I have now completey deleted the I386 folder and will start with a fresh source from my XP SP2 installation CD. The $OEM$ folder stays however. ;-)

Bye,
Alex

Re: IMPLEMENTED: M2: if some files present in $OEM$ dir, set OemPreinstall

Hi again,

no that did not help at all. But I know the reason for this ... somehow the line

    OemPreinstall=Yes

got deleted from winnt.sif ;-)

Bye,
Alex

Re: IMPLEMENTED: M2: if some files present in $OEM$ dir, set OemPreinstall

Well, that line is not necessary when using method 2. But I'll add detection of files inside the $OEM$ dir: if any files are detected, the line will be added nevertheless! wink

Hi Bashrat,

thanks that would be really great and it would help reduce some calls for help you will certainly get if this line gets deleted ;-)

Bye,
