These are switchless instalers that install .NET FW 1.1SP1, 2.0 & 3.0.
There are 11 separated self-extracting EXEs. If you don't want to install any of them remove them from CAB file as well as their respective entries from INI file (I'll assume you know how to do it). Here is what is what:

1.exe - .NET Framework 1.1 with slipstreamed hotfixes KB867460 (SP1), KB886903 & KB890673
2.exe - .NET Framework 2.0 with slipstreamed hotfixes KB917283 & KB922770
3.exe (3h.exe for x64 version) - .NET Framework 3.0
3a.exe - Software Rasterizer for DirectX 9.0 SDK
3b.exe - MSXML 6.0 Parser (KB925673)
3bu.exe - MSXML 6.0 Parser (KB927977)
3c.exe - Windows Imaging Component
3d.exe - XML Paper Specification Shared Components Pack 1.0
3e.exe - Windows Communication Foundation
3f.exe - Windows Presentation Foundation
3g.exe - Windows Workflow Foundation

x86 87.2MB (91536606B) | x64 138MB (145250463B)

You read my mind when you but this package together
but Im having a problem with .net 2.0 installing,
It looks like its installing during setup but when XP restarts
there is not a 2.0 dir in microsoft.NET dir and no .net 2.0 in
add remove programs. I can extract 2.exe and double click
it and it installs fine, as expected.

my svcpack.ini is below

^^^ - never tried the svcpack method for dotnet2, but it failed for me on cmdlines...later on I read that MSI stuff may fail there, and that MS recommends installing them via [GUIRunOnce] - in winnt.sif IIRC - I'm yet to try that though - I'd love to find an easier way (read: addon) to integrate .net into my ua...

[untermensch]

I got RyanVM .NET Framework all in one working as an addon, really easy to do
installs fine, I guess my dream would be to slipstream it in.

First, I made administrative installations for all packages except 3c.exe and 3d.exe. Then, I slipstreamed all hotfixes using msiexec with /p switch. Then, added msistub.exe to installations. After that, I made 7z self-extracting archives for each package with following command lines:

• update/update.exe /quiet
  

  for 3c and 3d
  

• msistub.exe netfx.msi ADDEPLOY=1 /passive /norestart
  

  for 2.exe and 3.exe
  

• msistub.exe *.msi /passive /norestart
  

  for all others

Finally, I packed EXEs into *.cab file.
The only exception is x64 version of .NET 1 which is executed through *.bat script and has one additional command:

cscript %SystemDrive%\inetpub\AdminScripts\adsutil.vbs set w3svc/AppPools/Enable32bitAppOnWin64 1

Frankly, i use RogerSpear .2net silent install pack that I dl long ago. There is a also a patch KB928365 if .net 2 is installed. This KB928365 need to install a via GUIRUNONCE. (KB928365 wouldn't work if install via svcpack as windows update will still says it it missing)

There is a Silent .Net Maker tool if you are interested

[johndoe74]

i'm a big fan (and a user) of RogueSpear's .NET releases as well. He works very hard and does a great job making flawless installers

Unfortunatly, for Windows XP 64bit there is only one sure way of installing NET 3.5, and that is using original MS dotNETFX isntaller with built in 2.0, 3.0 and 3.5 (SP1 installer is released few months ago), because you need to install both 32bit and 64bit components to be sure that all apps will work. There is evn slimed down b4bit NET for direct integration, but it's only 64bit. I have tryed all the available methods, and the only sure way is to add full 200MB installer with silent switch to be installed during first boot.

I have build a silent installer for Windows XP 64 bit that have 54.3 MB (337 MB uncompressed).

But this will also install only 64bit portions of both 2.0 and 3.5. On x64 Windows 32bit part from the article will fail installing, I have tested that recently.

And for the most applications there will be no problems, since NET applications are usually build for 'Any CPU' platform. But if you have NET app that is x86 built then you can't run it with only 64bit NET. I am a .NET developer and we had this problems with our test custom built machine with integrated 64bit NET that was missing x86 parts. So, the only way for not to install both x86 and x64 is to use MS full dotNETFX installer.

Until someone finds a way to integrate both x86 and x64 parts for integration in Windows XP 64bit, I am sticking to full installer.

Maybe you do something wrong, because my installer made with those instructions works perfect.

[TranceEnergy]

mine uses 67mb UNCompressed.. Just deleted files not needed for my os.

I am having a problem making it work with nLite.

After adding it to Inergrate Hotfixes, Add-ons and Update Packs the yellow button shows up on Setup Unattended.

I skimmed over my settings, didn't change anything - same as before w/ out .NET addon - and then completed to the point of making an ISO.

I tested it with VMWare Workstation and during the unattended install, I seen 7-Zip unspecifed error 2 times and 1155: (no text) OK (button) 1 time. When it finished, only .NET Framework 1.1 & updates was installed.

Can someone let me know what I am missing?

[aztec]

i know its on this post but it looks like everybody is having issues with it.
