Hi,
I have successfully created unattended installation disks for XP w/SP2 and Office XP. Each one is on it's own CD. Does anyone know how to create a single installation disk that:
1. Formats new HD
2. Loads XP
3. Loads customized Office XP

thanks

For the Office XP part.
I use a dvd for my combined install of o2k and XP. You could put the office XP into the $oem$ folders and use runonceex or Batch Scripting under GuiRunOnce in your winnt.sif.
Or you can use a batch file to prompt you to eject and insert the second CD. The basic way is

@echo off
cls
ECHO do anything you want to do on this cd
pause
ECHO please insert second cd with office xp
pause
if exist %dir_of_o2k%\setup.exe goto :install
if not exist %dir_of_o2k%\setup.exe goto :error
:install
start /wait %dir_of_o2k%\setup.exe TRANSFORMS=TRANSFORM_NAME.MST /qb- /noreboot
echo installed successfully
pause
exit
:error
echo Please insert office xp cd
pause
if exist %dir_of_o2k%\setup.exe goto :install
  if not exist %dir_of_o2k%\setup.exe goto :error

or something like that.
