Folks, I am attempting the following. TO make a bootable CD-ROm with SP2 slipstreamed, and all hotfixes needed. At my PC at home this work flawlessly ( with help of unattend.txt renamed to winnt.sif and put in I386 directory on the Bootable Cd-ROM. Also I put all the hotfixes in the $OEM$ folder and created a cmdlines.txt with all the commands to install the hotfixes. When I use the Smart Start 5.50 CD ( yes tried more than 1 of these) with assisted method of installation, I get read errors trying to read the CD-ROm and copy some .cls, and rmi files from the CD. I tried 2 different servers, same issue. Tried 2 different CD-ROMS same issue. Has anyone successfully done this. I am soo close I can taste it. It would defintely cut my installation time for a server and associated programs to about 30 mins, which means I could rool out about 20 servers a day or 100 per week with this simple CD. I have all the documentation needed, just need to figure out the darn problem with Smart-Start and miss reading files. Any assistance on this would be MUCH appreciated.
