No from cmdlines.txt it will not run because windows installation hasnt finished that time.
You can run it from GuiRunOnce

could we have the passphrase to decompile cdchg ??

[Fdisk]

it would be cool if it would check for the cd label before it ejects and ask for the second cd just in case it was already in another drive that way it would be a true unattented install with 2 disc . only have it ask for the second disc if it isnt found first.

[ankap]

Fdisk I'll do it thanks

Were do I put cdchg.exe in my cd?
Is D:\WinXP\$OEM$\$$\System32\cdchg.exe the good place ?

Thanks, very useful idea (I have not finished my cds yet but iam sur that will be helpful)

[JRJacobs]

sorry i'm confused...
your program seems just what i'm looking for BUT (excuse my big but here )
on the beginning thread you have an exe called install.exe, then further along you say you've updated it and now you have a exe called cdchg.exe then you answer fdisk about a change you'll do

my question is which is the NEWEST? it would SEEM cdchgr but cdchgr shows a created date of 12/25/2004 and install shows a created date of 2/9/2005

my second question is
does this mean "x" is a variable - i want your prog to setup to use a runonce reg entry so that after a reboot it will run WPI from a batch file on a second CD named APPS i would need only enter

"cdchg.exe APPS "\wpi\WpiRun1.cmd %systemdrive%\install\cleanup.cmd -n"

or do need to hardcode the drive as "X"

Quote

cdchg.exe "My Label" \install\runonceex.cmd %systemdrive%\install\cleanup.cmd
(checks for label "My Label" if ok pressed runs "x:\instal\runonceex.cmd x:" if cancel pressed runs "%systemdrive%\install\cleanup.cmd")
Note: it returns cd-drive letter to batch file. when used with .exe put -n at the and

cdchg.exe MSOffice "\ms office\setup.exe TRANSFORMS=office.mst /qb-" %systemdrive%\install\cleanup.cmd -n
(checks for label MSOffice, runs setup.exe from Office CD with unattended transforms)

thank you

The eject CD program works great with the Windows Post Installer application.

The program is just what I needed to make a 2 cd windows install.

Thanks....

Great stuff, ankap.

I need a version which asks you to insert a CD/DVD in Italian. Is there any way to have it?

Thanks.

If there`s nobody near the computer to change the CD and press ok, can you make it to skip the CD change in order to continue setup? Or if the CD is not changed in a time that user sets, to skip and continue setup?
That would be great.
Thank you anyway. Great work.
