update xp cd

[bruor]

thats pretty cool now if i could only get it to install my raid drivers for me it would be completely automated

Maybe this helps...
Look a point 4.

So maybe the only thing you have to do is to put your raid drivers in the drivers.cab file or use the "answer file".

The best thing is - It is possible!! I know that in officeXP you can create an 'administrative point installation whereby you expand the install system to a folder and then you can apply any updates, then burn it to a cd, and install.

Hopefully on of the mods will pick this up, and help us out (maybe even deserving a front-page mention when we find out & post a guide)

it would be cool if the first thread i create made front page on one of my favorite sites lol ill have to check out that sysprep and see what i can do with it but im goign to look at the structure of the driver.cab and see if there is a way to just insert the driver in there and add it to a database soemhow so that when windows searches for drivers at setup it will find that one

sorry soublema props for the idea i hope its as easy as just adding the files into the cab somewhere

Sorry, due to site downtime and doing 13+ hrs shifts @ work, I've been unable to find what I need, but I will post here my findings when I get chance

Ok this link deals with doing that for 2000 but I would guess that the process would be similar for XP. I'm sure once the offical release of the XP SP happens we'll be able to find more info about slipstreaming it.

Bootable cd with Sp installed
