[fgaifen]

Not working....

I've also tryed with /qb, /S and /silent commands.

Any ideas?

[MyStur]

You could always use CMenu to find switches.

Not working......

What isnt working? CMenu? Right click on the exe installer and go to "more options\Installer Tools\Identify Installer" If there are any switches, it will list them. You may have to repack it.

CMenu doesn't detect installer type and none of commands for known installer works.
Since Nero 9 is installed using xml language and, after playing a litle bit with setup.xml I manage to bypass a few passes in nero's installer. But still is not silent... it asks for serial....

I will look at it later today.

When somebody figured out this please post the guide
tnx

Hi, I managed to put in serial number, but I didn't match how to hide and to properly set dialogs. Why don't we merge our works, maybe something interesting will come out.
at the start of the setup.xml file you will find tis tag:

Quote

<Prop id="SerialNumber">
</Prop>

put your serial number between

Quote

<Prop id="SerialNumber">

and

Quote

</Prop>

.

PS. The Prop and /Prop can be on the same line.

hi allz, i found the SerialNumber section in the xml too and it didn't work with the trial serial number.
does anyone know what InstallerCategory id="2" does?
regards,
r

edit:misstyped the serial in setup.xml, it works with the trial

has somebody found the clue how to do that? That works?

[totres]

i was just waiting for fgaifen, who said that he managed to bypass some steps, but he didn't post anything

[fgaifen]

I manage to discover that there are 4 types of instalation of nero 9. InstallerCategory id="2" refers to that. If you change id the serial will be different.

In setup.xml find

<SequenceOrders id="SequenceOrders" child="SequenceOrder">
<SequenceOrder id="Install" child="Sequencee">
<Sequencee id="IDD_DLGWELCOME_INSTALL" child="Properties">
<Properties id="Properties">
<Prop id="SequenceOrder">1</Prop>
</Properties>

From SequenceOrder">1 to SequenceOrder">26 you have the order of instalation.
You may try to remove and see what happens.
IDD_DLGEULA removes EULA.

yes, you are right fgaifen, there are 4 types of InstallerCategory id, i tried to remove the toolbar settings in category id 2 and started the install, it crashed, so that's not a solution, i'll try to remove unit_app_75 folder from the install folders and post the results

edit: tried to remove unit_app_75 and install really skips the toolbar feature.

the setup.xml file is so large.
Will nero AG say something about that a manual or what?

[fgaifen]

When installation starts, I manage to see that all files go to temp directory and 3 log files are created.
Since I don't have time to test this weak (I'm not at home) I can't remember wich log is, but one is the settings for nero 9 and, it says that deployment can be done by nero_ds.xml.
This file can be obtained in "nero lite".
If some one have a litle time can test and post here the results.

i opened a ticket at nero 2 days ago, here is something that i found, the 4 installercategories:
2 nero9
3 moveit
4 mediahome4
5 backitup4

so the cat 2 is for the nero9 install
