Hey Guys,

I'm slowly moving from vLite to more of a self done Unattended Vista install.
I still use vLite for SP intergration and making the ISOs, but I make the unattended files myself now.

I'm just wondering if this looks ok.
I know i can test in a VMware session, but my problem is my Vista install now stretches onto 3DVDs (or 1DL + 1GB on a SL DVD), so building the ISOs, Setting up the VM Session, then running the installation takes almost 4 hours.
No point in testing the unattended xml if its plainly obvious to someone that its not going to work newwink.gif

So can someone check it over and let me know if it looks honka dory

if you have the WAIK Kit installed the windows image manager will do this for you

Nah I don't sad.gif
I only have 256kb connection speed so download 1GB+ was an issue.
I spent a fair while just searching for a way to install and use vLite without waik

You really only require the "wimgapi.dll" from the Tools folder to run VLite. It has been put up on these forums before.

Nah, only about 20 lol.
But I have like, everything so I turn my system on and I can write an essay or work from home.
This includes MS Office 07, 3D Mark.
Keep in mind that Vista install alone is 1DVD
Vista + WPI with JUST 3D Mark is 2DVDs
So with Office and anti virus and other various apps it stretchs onto 3DVDs by about 1GB

Ah, I just installed 1.6, then 2.0

Is there somewhere (or some kind person newwink.gif ) that I can get the WIM checker, I'd imagine that tool alone to check through the answer file is remarkable smaller then the entire WAIK kit?
