 You can remove the line starting with for %%a. or comment it out. See if that helps 
 and let us know.

Ok, I finally got to borrow a card reader to test this.  Commenting out the 4th line
in mapznrun.bat does work.  I wonder why that error doesn't appear with empty
cdrom drives.

I do not know, but it doesn't.  if exist d:\foo\bar echo hi exits
immediately.

My inclination is to eliminate that line, and assume that people doing
DVD-ROM installs can arrange for %Z% to be set, statically or
programmatically, by c:\netinst\permcred.bat.

Any compelling objections?

Re: [Unattended] mapznrun problem with linux boot - there is no disk in the drive

2004-07-26 Thread Kevin Lawry \(Administrator\)
Guys,

thanks, between you I have sorted it - the machine I was testing it on had
onboard USB memory card readers, unplugging them made the problem go away,
however that is not a practical solution so I have modified mapznrun to
remove the section that searches the disk.

I had seen that line, but I only had the problem on the machine I did the
linux boot on - turned out that the machine I was doing the DOS boot test
has a motherboard error  the drives are not always available so the error
didn't happen (untill I tried again this morning running mapznrun from the
command line) - So I had blamed the Linuz boot  got confused.

I have some other problems going on with files not copying properly so I may
be back for more help :-)

Cheers

Kevin Lawry

 Hi Daniel,

 The 4th line in mapznrun.bat is checking all local disks for a
\dosbin\install.pl file, for use in installing
 unattend from a Cd/DVD instead of a network. It could be triggering your
error.
 You can remove the line starting with for %%a. or comment it out. See if
that helps and let us know.

[Unattended] mapznrun problem with linux boot - there is no disk in the drive

2004-07-24 Thread kevin
Hi

My first try with the Linux boot seemed to be going well untill the 1st
reboot - then I got the following error from mapznrun

There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive
\device\hardisk1\dr1

clicking cancel repeats the error 3 more times incrementing the drive number
dr2, dr3, dr4 and then cancel once more maps the z drive correctly 
continues

The error repeats with each reboot (at least as many as I sat through before
it was time for the weekend)

I am guessing that the script is looking for linux drives but I can't see
that in the script as written - can someone point me in the right direction
please

Thanks

Kevin Lawry
