Guest RLEE71 Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 I currently have a scripted method to install Windows 2003 SP2 Server using an Unattend.txt file. Question is, can one deploy Windows 2003 SP2 Server with an Unattend.xml file? I know this is possible with Windows 2008 Server, and MDT is supposed to support Windows 2003 SP2 Server. Just wondering if it was possible and how one would either create or convert from txt. xml file. Thanks, Ron
Guest Salvador Manaois III Posted October 16, 2008 Posted October 16, 2008 RE: Unattend.txt to Unattend.xml You can create the unattend.xml file using the Windows System Image Manager from the Windows Automated Installation Kit (WAIK). Or if you want generate one on the fly without going through the pain of installing the kit, follow this link: http://dc412.org/unattend.php -- Salvador Manaois III MCSE MCSA CEH MCITP | Enterprise/Server Admin Bytes & Badz : http://badzmanaois.blogspot.com "RLEE71" wrote: > I currently have a scripted method to install Windows 2003 SP2 Server using > an Unattend.txt file.

Guest RLEE71 Posted October 22, 2008 Posted October 22, 2008 RE: Unattend.txt to Unattend.xml Sal, My issue is that I need an XML specific to Windows 2003 Server. WIll the link you provided to create an XML file for Vista work on Server 2003? I also believe that WAIK is only for Server 2008, but I could be wrong.
