I have my cd multiboot but don't work

I have editing txtsetup.sif with SetupSourcePath = "\SETUP\XP\Professional\"
but during the installation setup can't find many files


Translate: Insert the cd with label "Win xp sp2" than press ok



If i insert the right path ( D:\SETUP\XP\Professional\i386 ) the installation continue, but it isn't a unattended installation!!!

What is the problem?

be sure you have COPYED not moved WIN51IP.SP2,WIN51IP,WIN51,SETUPXP.HTM
into your root dir

It looks just like the problem I had a few months ago. It is coming from your PRO1 folder (for example in the guide) which contain the necessary files for TextSetup Mode and the first step of the GUI part.


PROBLEM I HAD

During the TextSetup portion it looks fine as winnt.sif kicks in and the $OEM$ folder is copied over... but at the beginning of the GUI I get:



After I click OK, I can specify where to find the files (D:\XPEN\I386)



It goes on and on for the following files:

1- asms (it is a folder under I386)
2- NT5INF.CAT
3- NT5.CAT
4- SP2.CAT
5- NTPRINT.CAT
6- NT5IIS.CAT
7- MAPIMIG.CAT
8- FP4.CAT
9- IMS.CAT
10-MSMSGS.CAT
11-HPCRDP.CAT
12-MW770.CAT
13-wmerrenu.cat
14-IASNT4.CAT
15-MSTSWEB.CAT
16-OEMBIOS.CAT
17-tabletpc.cat
18-mediactr.cat
19-msn7.cat
20-msn9.cat
21-netfx.cat

Then I finally get this:



Afterward, Setup goes on ... but I seem to be stuck at the T-37 stage (37-minutes)



SOLUTION:

Get the proper boot files with GOSH method as outlined here:

$WIN_NT$.~BT - the boot folder

Do you have ident files on the CD root and next to I386?:
WIN51
WIN51IP
win51ip.SP2

Guys, stop asking if he his missing the Signature files.

If this was the case, Setup wouldn't allow him to put the Path to the missing files...

if your problem is not solved already, then try this. if u make your image with nero and other some image making software it gives this error. please make your image with cdimage - a command line tools from microsoft and there is also a gui version available named cdimagegui. search these soft in google or msfn. in cdimage only enable iso9660 filesystem. do not eanble joilet filesystem, it creates problem if you r creating a multiboot dvd
