WHAT'S UP ?

Re: Could not create a backup of \I386\txtsetup.sif

Strange. Should be a permissions issue. txtsetup.sif is probably read-only, but the BASE actually resets all file permissions before starting a slipstream. But obviously that has failed, could you retry with an account that has administrator privileges?

Re: Could not create a backup of \I386\txtsetup.sif

hi
halfway throug the clicking through options and settings, you changed location of source.
maybe that this caused this

...just a guess...

but this is something I noticed here, after a first detection.

2007-02-28 17:13:38 : <GUI>  Windows XP Professional -  OEM SP2 detected.

is E: your CDROM?

if E: is a CD, that will never work.

The answer was 42?
Kind regards, Jaak.
