:hello:
again me..
sorry guys..this time i have a doubt that i couldnĄt solve it with the guide..
i saw the step of the office tools for an unattended installation..
as i can see that's easy..
but at the end of the whole process...my installation still is 500MB (aprox..)
how can i mod the installation??
just need word,excel,ppoint and acces..
no need tools like image manager etc...
i didn's see that step on the guide..
:ph34r:

after you eliminate the component from install you should be able to delete the corresponding folder/s (without erroring during install), thus reducing the size. Most of the components are nicely seperated.

you should be able to delete the corresponding folder
you as in, you manually deleting the items you are no longer using.

you are just creating an answer file during the admin portion. If you are not calling some components during install, try deleting those folders, then burn the remaining items.

Some items are linked (i had issues with pieces of word and excel) and will throw errors but maybe through trial and error you will learn something you can offer.
