This means the system did not find anything which looks like a Windows
CD under Z:\os.

This looks fine.

Good so far.

I don't know what that is, but it is not a copy of a normal Windows
CD.  There should be an i386 directory at this level.

> ls -l /install/os/winxp/|head
> total 108
> dr-xr-xr-x   10 install  users      106496 Aug 23  2001 i386/

This, on the other hand, looks fine.  But something still might be
wrong with the contents or permissions under i386.

After the boot disk dies, what happens if you type the following from
the DOS prompt:

Z:
cd \os
cd i386
dir     (should show a huge collection of files)
dir txtsetup.sif
dir setupp.ini
dir prodspec.ini


The files txtsetup.sif, settupp.ini, and prodspec.ini under i386 are
how Unattended recognizes Windows installation media.  If they are not
present or not readable, Unattended skips the directory.

You can also try running "more" on each of those three files under
DOS.
