I do my installs with the SBS 2008 DVD. Put the answer file on a USB stick and the install will look for the USB drive automatically.
You might have to change the server BIOS settings to not boot off of USB drives. You will get the 'unable to find files' message if you don't. Pretty straight forward in my experience.

I have an answer file that I need to use while installing SBS2K8, but this is my first experience in doing so, and I'm unclear on exactly how to get the OS install to pick up and use the answer file. Should I be doing the install straight off the SBS disk, or start using Dell's build utility? Appreciate any help. -- David _____________________ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
