Oh, you may need one of those. OEMPreInstall=YES depends on it to copy $OEM$ on to the %SYSTEMDRIVE% at text setup mode. Look here.

i created one my self winnt.sif

it will process my runonceex.cmd but wont copy the file over to the hard drive to install says can't find the path

If this is an Unattended Install, I believe (not sure) that it's always going to be relative to the ROOT folder (c:/yada-ROOT-withOsTags/otherFoldersAndFiles). If that's the case, best to create an ISO Image of everything in the ROOT folder and up (but not the root-folder itself, only the CONTENTS). I don't think (again, unsure) that an Unattended will work in the fashion you're trying (IF an Unattended, which it definitely sounds like).

note - someone else more knowledgeable may be able to expand/correct this post information.

put in the a folder with short path, 'C:\XP_unattended_W-programs\$OEM$\$1\Install\FoxitReader3_2\ Foxit.msi
' this is too long.
