Your English is fine smile.gif

The error for Flash 9 is normal. The registration part of the newest OCX from Adobe is just broken so we'll have to wait for them to release a new version. For Win2K and Win2K3 I even had to work around this otherwise an error dialog appeared during Windows setup. Weird that they haven't updated it yet... Who'd think anyone would slipstream Flash, right? newwink.gif

I know about the errors for MSXML2 but am not sure why they occur. HFSLIP is including the catalog file so I guess Windows setup uses these DLLs before it checks the catalog files.


Ok I have understood thanks smile.gif
But for MSXML2 problem there is a workaround or not?

@ Tomcat76...

POSSIBLE GOOD NEWS...

I install my media center from CMDLINES normally in this order...

CODE
"rundll32 setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection Freestyle 128 medctroc.inf"
"rundll32 setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection PlusDancer 128 plusoc.inf"
"rundll32 setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection SonicDVDandCDBurning 128 sonic.inf"


But since you pointed out the errors in MedCtrOC.log I changed the order to...

CODE
"rundll32 setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection SonicDVDandCDBurning 128 sonic.inf"
"rundll32 setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection Freestyle 128 medctroc.inf"
"rundll32 setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection PlusDancer 128 plusoc.inf"



After the install I checked the MedCtrOc.log to see if any errors occured... NO!
I havn't had a chance to check whether this effects the results of Windows Update, will get back to you on that.

Any way, a possible resolution is to try and involk the sonic.cab to install before mediactr.cab. This will resolve the errrors!


UPDATE
Unfortunately the updates are still showing up on Windows/Microsoft Update website.
But at least this shows the errors on MedCtrOc.log are not the cause of the updates showing up on the website.

@antonio_king

That's nice, but that won't fix the problem for "regular" MCE distributions. In these, the .NET 1.0/MC/Plus/Sonic components are installed from SYSOC.INF at which point .NET 1.1 is not installed yet. This will take some time to debug so MCE slipstreaming won't make it into the next final.

But for MSXML2 problem there is a workaround or not?
HFSLIP 1.2.2-rc2 adds the CAT file of the msxml2sp6-kb887606 security update. Apparantly HFSLIP wasn't doing that before. This will fix the error for msxml2.dll, but not for msxml2r.dll. This is because msxml2r.dll is not part of the security update; msxml2r.dll is taken from msxml2.msi which doesn't contain a CAT file at all. I couldn't find a hotfix containing msxml2r.dll *and* a CAT file so the msxml2r.dll error can't be avoided unless you don't include msxml2.msi.

Ok, this for me is unuseful, because if I put the .netfx 2.0 exe installer (silent installer download on ryanvm site), it doesn't install, (because that method doesn't install at first logon, but at T-13 of Windows installation), so I have asked. Someone else can told me how to do that?

It depends on the type. Microsoft Type 1 and Type 2 hotfixes are generally supported (provided that the Type 1 hotfix has the word "Windows" in its name); these go in the HF folder. Executables that need to be installed with the /Q:A /R:N switches go in HFSVCPACK_SW (with special care for WMP10 if you prefer to place it in this folder). Executables found in HFSVCPACK will be installed without switches so this folder is best used for silent/switchless installers; "normal" executables can also be placed in this folder but then you'll have to follow their installation wizard during Windows setup.

RyanVM mentions that his .NET 2.0 installer can't be installed at T-13. There are several posts here about alternative switchless .NET 2.0 installers which CAN be installed at T-13.

I have tried to download Aserone's Net Installer, but the link doesn't work anymore... I have searched on web but I can't find another installer that work at T-13. Can you tell me where I can download it?
Where can I put the language packs for net framework in hfslip (both 1.1 and 2.0)?

EDIT: Another news, if I slipstream WindowsXP-KB929969-x86-ITA.exe, after I have installed Windows, Windows Update tell me that KB929969 update isn't installed, but, if I slipstream IE7-KB929969-WindowsXP-x86-ita.exe, Windows Update doesn't tell me to install KB929969 hotfix. I attach my log (with IE7-KB929969-WindowsXP-x86-ita.exe update)
Tomcat76
I see in your log file that you are including IE7. WindowsXP-KB929969-x86-ITA.exe is only for IE6 so it's normal that Windows Update complains.

.NET as well as the language packs are not supported directly. I don't know of silent installers that combine everything, but you can make a full .NET 1.1 package including the language pack yourself with some script I wrote a long time ago.

I can't seem to find another .NET 2.0 silent installer anymore either (at least not one that's up to date).

been brave enough ... been doing this all along ... if it's not switchless, indeed at T-13 all prompts come up (NOTE: for those who try this too ... more suited for XP ... & don't reboot when prompted smile.gif ) thanks TC for making this official!

I found that link the other day in another post on this forum -- don't remember if it was you or someone else. But just like the other one, I get a page with a login box. So I went to that forum's main page and did a search for "framework" and for "net", neither of which got me what I was looking for. So I suppose it isn't located in a thread of its own. I also went to the root URL (main site) and couldn't find it there either.

Yes, I have had the same problem... but I have made by myself a silent installer for both 1.1 and 2.0 net framework, I'll post the instructions below (found on RyanVM site), so you can create a web page on your site (so nobody ask you for net framework problem smile.gif ).
I have only an issue, if I install net framework 2.0 language pack at T-13 (1.1 net framework works at T-13, but 2.0 doesn't.. bah), when I search for update with Windows update, it tell me that it isn't installed. So this is my question: there is a way, in hfslip directory, to install this language pack at first logon like "RunOnceEx.cmd" (http://unattended.msfn.org/unattended.xp/view/web/59/) do?

These are the instructions I have found, can you add these instructions to your website?

QUOTE
.NET framework v1.1 SP1
.NET framework v2.0 SP1
------------------------------ from svcpack mode.

What you need
----------
1- goto microsoft.com, download & rename in dotnetfx1.exe
2- goto microsoft.com and download NDP1.1sp1-KB867460-X86.exe
3- goto microsoft.com and download NDP1.1sp1-KB886903-X86.exe
4(optional)- goto microsoft.com, choose your language, download & rename in langpack1.exe
5- goto microsoft.com, download & rename in dotnetfx2.exe
6- goto microsoft.com and download NDP20-KB917283-X86.exe
7- goto microsoft.com and download NDP20-KB922770-X86.exe
8- goto msfn site and download sleep.zip
9- You need Winrar

FOLDERS
----------------------

10- create folder in Partition c: call it netfx.
11- create 3 subfolder in netfx call them fx1, fx2 and temp.


.NET framework v1.1
----------------------

12- run "dotnetfx1.exe" with the "/C" switch for extracting the contents to C:\netfx\temp folder.
13- run "NDP1.1sp1-KB867460-X86.exe" with the "/XP" switch, a dialog box asking you where to save the MSP file, extract it to C:\netfx\temp folder.
14- run "NDP1.1sp1-KB886903-X86.exe" with the "/XP" switch, a dialog box asking you where to save the MSP file, extract it to C:\netfx\temp folder.
15- open your command prompt and type these instructions:
CODE
A-- msiexec /a C:\netfx\temp\netfx.msi TARGETDIR="C:\netfx\fx1"
NOTE: You MUST wait until a dialog box show that the installation is complete!
B-- msiexec /p C:\netfx\temp\S867460.msp /a C:\netfx\fx1\netfx.msi
C-- msiexec /p C:\netfx\temp\M886903.msp /a C:\netfx\fx1\netfx.msi

16(optional)- Extract the contents of language1.exe with the "/C" switch, a dialog box asking you where to save the files, extract them to C:\netfx\fx1\language

And Now
---------
You have the updated pack for 1.1 net framework in C:\netfx\fx1, delete all the contents in C:\netfx\temp, because we need a clean temp directory for integrate the hotfix for 2.0 net framework.

.NET framework v2.0
----------------------

17- run "dotnetfx2.exe" with the "/C" switch for extracting the contents to C:\netfx\temp folder.
18- run "NDP20-KB917283-X86.exe" with the "/EXTRACT" switch, a dialog box asking you where to save the MSP file, extract it to C:\netfx\temp folder.
19- run "NDP20-KB922770-X86.exe" with the "/EXTRACT" switch, a dialog box asking you where to save the MSP file, extract it to C:\netfx\temp folder.
20- open your command prompt and type these instructions:
CODE
A-- msiexec /a C:\netfx\temp\netfx.msi TARGETDIR="c:\netfx\fx2"
B-- msiexec /p C:\netfx\temp\NDP20-KB917283-X86.msp /a C:\netfx\fx2\netfx.msi
C-- msiexec /p C:\netfx\temp\NDP20-KB922770-X86.msp /a C:\netfx\fx2\netfx.msi


And Now
---------
You have the updated pack for 1.1 net framework in C:\netfx\fx1, and 2.0 net framework in C:\netfx\fx2.
Delete the directory C:\netfx\temp with all inside contents, we don't need it at all.

Finalising
-------------

21- EXTRACT sleep.zip to directory c:\netfx\
22- Create a file named "inst.bat" and paste this code, NOTE: There is a line for 1.1 language pack that can be removed.

CODE
@ECHO off
IF EXIST %SystemRoot%\system32\cmdow.exe cmdow @ /HID

ECHO NET Framework 1.1 sp1
ECHO ------------------------

START/WAIT %SystemRoot%\system32\netfx\fx1\netfx.msi /quiet /norestart

REM ###The line below is optional###
START/WAIT %SystemRoot%\system32\netfx\fx1\language\inst.exe /qb

%SystemRoot%\system32\netfx\sleep.exe 10

ECHO NET Framework 2.0 sp1
ECHO ------------------------

REG DELETE HKLM\Software\Microsoft\PCHealth\ErrorReporting\DW /f
REG ADD HKLM\SYSTEM\Setup /v SystemSetupInProgress /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
START/WAIT %SystemRoot%\system32\netfx\fx2\netfx.msi ADDEPLOY=1 /quiet /norestart
%SystemRoot%\system32\netfx\sleep.exe 5
REG ADD HKLM\SYSTEM\Setup /v SystemSetupInProgress /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
REG ADD HKLM\Software\Microsoft\PCHealth\ErrorReporting\DW\Installed /v DW0200 /t REG_SZ /d C:\PROGRA~1\COMMON~1\MICROS~1\DW\DW20.EXE /f

ECHO Delete Temp Files
ECHO ------------------------

RD %SystemRoot%\system32\netfx /S /Q

EXIT


23- now you have in directory c:\netfx 2 folders and 2 files ( fx1,fx2,sleep.exe,inst.bat )
24- to do the rest you MUST have Winrar
25- add this "fx1 - fx2 - sleep.exe - inst.bat" to archive
26- in general select creat sfx archive
27- in advanced select sfx option
A-- PATH TO EXTRACT ENTER %SystemRoot%\system32\netfx
B-- RUN AFTER EXTRACTION %SystemRoot%\system32\netfx\inst.bat
C-- goto modes select 1- hide all 2- overwrite all files

<<THE CODE WILL BE LIKE>>
----------------------------------------------------------
;The comment below contains SFX script commands

Path=%SystemRoot%\system32\netfx
SavePath
Setup=%SystemRoot%\system32\netfx\z.bat
Silent=1
Overwrite=1
----------------------------------------------------------

D-- Hit OK and a sfx file will create, rename it to netfx.exe


Now you can add the file netfx.exe to HFSLIP\HFSVCPACK, for installing net framework contents!!!

@S3pHiroTh
I don't intend to add this to the site but I'm in the process of making a script for this (more simple than the other one) with support for .NET 2.0 too. I did screw up my main working system while doing so; I can't uninstall, reinstall or repair install any version of .NET anymore. I even had to do a repair install of Windows (after fixing the "system32\config\system is corrupt or missing" error) because I manually removed (too much) stuff from the registry. I think it was because I combined the admin install folders for .NET 2.0 and a language pack; some of their setup files have identical names.

A test install in a VM with .NET 2.0 failed for me too but that was because I forgot to include the ADDEPLOY=1 variable in the install command. I didn't get around to testing further because of the issues with my main working system.

I have seen that now, with this latest version of hfslip and the new script for net packages, windows installs correctly except for:
I use winnt.sif file for silent installation, when windows start for the first time, classic theme is loaded instead of XP theme, but in my winnt.sif isn't deactived XP theme

Another question is:
When I slipstream WindowsUpdateAgent20-x86.exe, in "start->all programs" doesn't show the link for "microsoft update", there is a way to delete "Windows Update" and install "Microsoft Update" link?

These are not big problem, but I want, if it is possible, to install Windows "correctly". Thanks for your scripts Tomcat smile.gif thumbup.gif
Super-Magician
WindowsUpdateAgent20-x86.exe is not the Microsoft Update Agent. That's just for Windows Update. If you want Microsoft Update, that's a separate file, MUWEB_SITE.cab, which belongs in HFCABS. Check Tomcat's hotfix list for the link.

If you do plan to slipstream MUWEB, keep in mind that you can't change the link unless you create your own CMD file or switchless "installer." On the same token, simply slipstreaming it won't cause WU to recognize the DLL. Instead, you must import something else, which I've attached here (place this in HFSVCPACK).

If you do decide to create something to modify the link for you, it obviously won't work unless...

(1) You slipstream the right things (both WindowsUpdateAgent20-x86.exe and MUWEB_SITE.cab), and
(2) You include the file I attached.

If you don't follow (1) and/or (2), clicking on any WU link, modified or not, will redirect you back to the Windows Update page.

Is there a problem with using RyanVM's .NET1 and .NET2 silent installers in HFSVCPACK (linked from here), that I should be aware of? They appear to be up to date, at least Windows Update seems to think so. Is it that they are limited to U.S. English? Is it that some progress bars fly by so it's not completely silent? Is it that they are too slow?

RyanVM .Net1 should work if you install in that directory, but the .net2 package doesn't install at T-13 Windows Installation... If you search in reply above, you'll find a post from Tomcat that link to me another topic with a script for making a working (upgraded and with the language pack) silent installer.

You know, I REALLY should get RyanVM to make that note clearer about his .NET 2.0 installer. It's stated so conspicuously there, but for some reason no one reads it!!

It seems to work with Windows 2000, maybe not XP. At one point I was getting an error because mscorsvw was trying to start, but the installation kept on chugging, and I never narrowed it down to .net1.1sp1 or .net2 because I stopped getting it as I fixed other errors in my unattended install

I'm not sure why this happened. I have to do more testing. It could be due my new attempts at driver integration.

When I used 70111a, for the post-setup wizard, the system tries to open the MSOOBE shell through Internet Explorer (HTML file) rather than full-screen on its own. It's weird (I was presented with that IE file download dialog. Of course, everything gets stuck after that.

@S-M: KB912945 caused the same error because of mshtml.dll. Can you try without KB928029 to see if it works properly then?

Removing KB928029 seems to have solved it. Is there any way to have HFSLIP support this?

Hi Tomcat, I have tested once your new version of the script... I have only one question for my curiosity. In the other topic (net framework topic) I have asked you to support RunOnce in HFSLIP (Thanks a lot)... I have tried to install Net Framework 1.1 and 2.0 with SVCPACK method, net package 3.0 with GuiRunOnce. It installs, but Event Viewer doesn't show anything about framework 3.0 installation. There are entries for net framework 1.1, for net framework 2.0, but for the 3.0 nothing... Do you know why this happen?
Tomcat76
.NET 3.0 installed for me. I used the same setup as you: DNF11.exe and DNF20.exe in HFSVCPACK and DNF30.exe (not including .NET 2.0) in HFGUIRUNONCE.
Event Viewer shows the regular warnings about .NET 3.0 here...

Ok, I'll run another session of test smile.gif

EDIT: Another question about the script: there is a way to "stamp" the output messages when the script is working?
I have used this dos command "hfslip-701261.cmd > error.txt", but the errors are shown on command prompt windows and the other messages are write in error.txt file
I have discovered that if I write the istruction above, I have 3 error message in command prompt, but I don't know when this errors are shown.
The errors are:
-Impossible to find that specific file.
-Impossible to find 'DIR/B/A-D file
-File not found

Maybe the second is easy to find, but the others... urgh... wacko.gif
Tomcat76
Actually, I just searched the entire script and can't find where that DIR/B/A-D error message could be coming from. To my knowledge it can only come from missing single quotes in a FOR loop and there aren't any of those...

I'll go error message hunting again one of these days.... tongue.gif
