There is a program I use called nLite that is semi Jaws friendly.
http://www.nliteos.com/download.html
Basically all it does behind the scenes is modify the answer file, and allows
you to create an ISO file or burn directly to disk. There is a bit of a
learning curve but with a little investigation it is not as hard as it seems at
first. One option that I have not seen for it is to be able to automatically
reformat the drive and begin the install. I do however know that you can
modify the answer file that it creates to do this and have done it and it works
great for my needs.

Subject: a windoes issue with OEM disks
Hello list,
I just bought a system last year. Lucaklly for me... it is a gateway.
I can use the OEM, but that requres me to install AOL, quicktime, bigfix, and
40 other progs.
Anyone know if there is a solution to installing windows without everything?
I've tried using a normal XP cd. It decided that it didn't want to recognize
my hd.
I'm going to work on an unattended kit, but I need to find something to burn
the cd with--and hope gw decides to quit being uh $$$$$$$$ and let it work.
Thanks,
Tyler Littlefield
