What am I doing wrong that causes my Win XP installation to pause at the network setup page and require a workgroup name entry? (BTW after you fill it out it says you can't join the workgroup. Well, duh, there's no network connection active until setup finishes) I have tried filling out and NOT filling out the network tab in nLite and neither seems to make a difference since version 1.0. Is there a way to make a truely unattended install with nLite still?

hi lurk&jerk! would you happen to have a predefined winnt.sif file? if so, this could be causing the conflict ... are you doing the install in a VM?
