probs w/ unattended install w2000pro
I have done a google search & checked various other forums to see if someone out there might have the answer to my dilemma. Hopefully one of u might know ...?
I'm studying for my MCSA . I'm doing an exercise that requires me to do an unattended install of Win2000Pro w/answer files. I used the setup manager wizard to create the unattend.bat & unattend.txt . I have the Distribution folder w/ all the W2000Pro install files set up as well . Everything is Shared & the permissions are proper. I am running Server 2000 . My target computer has a blank HD formatted FAT(32) . I am able to connect to the server and Map to the Deploy & Distribution folders using a Network boot disk. The problem is that when I type in unattend.bat at the command line of my target pc ... I receive a "Bad command or Filename " error message . The Batch file works on the Server. I double click on it and it kicks off an unattended install (**on it's own HD **) ... So I know it's a good batch file. Why is my PC giving me a Bad command or Filename error?? unattend.bat is a MS-DOS file. It should run & start the install. My instructor can't figure it out. He says it shouldn't be acting that way. I tried 2 different Network Boot disks 'cause my instructor thought maybe the Command.com was bad. Same results . Unattend.bat "Bad command Or filename" Help!???? please... |

Thanx for the reply . Here it is....
@rem SetupMgrTag @echo off rem rem This is a SAMPLE batch script generated by the Setup Manager Wizard. rem If this script is moved from the location where it was generated, it may have to be modified. rem set AnswerFile=.\unattend.txt set SetupFiles=\\SERVER31\win2000dist \\SERVER31\win2000dist\winnt32.exe /s:%SetupFiles% /unattend:%AnswerFile% |
