parkball2 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Another annoying noob. Sorry.On my RIS server I only have 1 unattended RIS image which is installing perfectly. Is there a way start the install (after pressing F12) without asking the user for input.There is only 1 image on the server and the User and Password never change.ThanksJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Br4tt3 Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 hi!sorry for not being more precise, but Yes there is... u can automate the osc screens, especially when only having a single image to select from. Google it or go to technet on microsoft.com as I know there is a paper on it named something like:ciw screen design document (sorry again for not having the link to it)Best RegardsTha Sausage Eater...

parkball2 Posted March 28, 2006 Author Share Posted March 28, 2006 (edited) hey,I've read up on some of the MS stuff but havent found a solution. MS says some of the screens cannot be removed, but I've got them to where all you have to do is press Enter a few times (I added the username and password to login.ocs) but I would like to have a setup where the user never sees any wizard screens. Is there a way to edit the OCSML code to simulate an Enter keypress?Any other ideas?J Edited March 28, 2006 by parkball2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dk_ Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 May be this text will be helpful for you. Try to "connect" first page with last or combination of only necessary screens using <FORM ACTION="screen name"> </FORM>Good luck B)Oschoice.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunman Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 To simulate an enter key press use the following :<META ACTION=AUTOENTER>Insert this before the main body section of your osc file, ususally after the footer.Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tetontroll Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 The Windows 2003 server RIS system includes a file named startrom.n12 intended for completely unattended installations. It is in the OSChooser\i386 folder. With a single image you can rename it to startrom.com. This link has more detail:http://technet2.microsoft.com/WindowsServe...e22ca81033.mspxGood luck.
