doesnt work....

but if i delete alcohol from batch....all works!!!!

my version is 1.4.8 (build 1222)....and i've used this switchs:

CODE

start /wait %systemdrive%\install\alcohol\setup.exe /qn Reboot=ReallySuppress
start /wait %systemdrive%\install\alcohol\setup.exe /qn Reboot=Suppress
start /wait %systemdrive%\install\alcohol\setup.msi /qn Reboot=ReallySuppress

Instead of the .exe use the extracted alcohol.msi with /QBR switches.

Taken from MSFN's Unattended XP CD

Use "alcohol.msi /QBR" to install silent with no question to reboot.
Work's with sunjava 1.5, too.

In Germany we say:
If you can read you're in advantage

You're right. The site has been changed.
But believe, if you use /QBR with .msifiles everything is fine.

Westi, /QBR was never on the main site (I know, cos I maintain it)

What does the 'R' do though?

QUOTE

/q [n|b|r|f]The /q option is used to set the user interface level in conjunction with the following flags:
q or qn creates no user interface
qb creates a basic user interface
The user interface settings below display a modal dialog box at the end of installation:
qr displays a reduced user interface
qf displays a full user interface
qn+ displays no user interface
qb+ displays a basic user interface

To keep it offtopic

I often use "/QB!" to hide the cancel button.
The documentation of the Q switches seems quite inconsistent.
