Hello List,
First off let me say I have really been enjoying Unattended 4.5 and it
has been VERY helpful as I am in an office where much of the equipment
is dissimilar from all the other equipment.
Looking through the mailing list, I see someone having a similar
problem to the one I am having. (Kaari's problem with base.bat file
message from 2004-09-30). During my install of Win2k with SP4
integrated, the process would stop about the install of IE6. The
autologin would be cancelled somehow and would require the execution
of the autolog.pl script to reset this. (The logon screen would show
Administrator, but waiting for the password.) The execution of
todo.pl would stop as well, but this is not consistent (usually
occurred when I left the install running after I went home for the
night, probably something timing out). Rebooting the system would not
fix the logon problem, but would usually restart the script. I went a
little hog wild with autolog.pl and .reboot to help me better locate
the problem. My modified base.bat script is included below. I also
tested this with the original base.bat script and found the problem
came up during the install of IE6 after the first reboot (I believe
this is where Kaari's problem occurred also.) The problem would occur
after the first reboot (the first reboot after perl finishes
installing and base.bat has started). If anyone knows how to fix this
I would appreciate it.
