Windows XP or Windows 2003 IA32-bit Unattend Install Instructions
=================================================================


I. Introduction

   Unattended Installation is a hands-free and convenient method of installing Microsoft 
Windows XP.  It allows the administrator to set options in the unattended.txt for 
specific needs.  For Remote Installation Service (RIS) instructions, please refer to
Broadcom NetXtreme Fast Ethernet Controller User's Guide in the Manuals folder on the CD.


II. Setting up an Install Directory on the File Server
	
    The server must be setup with a distribution folder that holds the required 
    Windows XP files and which clients can reach when connecting via TCP/IP or IPX. 
    For examples in this bdrvcopy.txt use the network share C:\Image.

    To prepare the distribution folder:

	1.  Create a network share distribution folder, c:\Image
      	2.  Copy the \I386 folder from the Windows XP CD to C:\Image.
    	    Use Explorer, Winfile or XCOPY in order to maintain the same 
            directory structure as on the CD.
 	
        3.  Copy driver files from the Broadcom CD 
            into the shared directory C:\Image. 

	4.  Copy the Unattend folder from the Broadcom CD into the shared directory C:\Image.

	5.  Change directory to the Unattend folder on the Dos prompt

	6.  Run "BDRVCOPY.BAT ..\I386 IA32" to create the driver install directory 
            structure and copy the driver files to it.

            This would make the following folders under the \I386 folder as follows:
		\$oem$\$1\drivers\BCM570X
		

III. Deployment Methods
	
    1. Make sure that you have a copy of a network bootable MS-DOS floppy that will 
       connect the client system to the C:\Image directory on the File Server.

    2. Map the network share c:\Image to Z: on the client system.

    3. CD to Z:\I386 directory and run the command:  

       winnt /u:z:\I386\unattend.txt /s:z:\I386 /t:c     
       (where z: equals mapped drive)
