According to this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/896334
There is no known way to install windows x64
from dos.
You have to install from CD, an other
windows x64 OS, or Remote Installation Services.
You can’t even install from 32 bit
windows so no wine.
We should see how RIS works.

I have taken a look at this and have come close to
getting it to work. Here is what I did.
In
the unattended file, I changed all references to i386 to AMD64, that is the
directory
where
the install files are now located. I changed the name of the file to run
from
winnt
to winnt32. In the WinMedia.pl module, I addded a condition al in
the new functions to test for the AMD 64
directory,
if it is there, the I set an osDir variable to "amd64", I then
replaced all
occurances
of i386 with this variable(in this case it is set to "amd64").
This
seems to work up to the point where dosemu tries to run the winnt32.exe
program. It gives a message
saying
"something like "Cannot run this executable on this platform". I
guess the dosemu free dos will not run a 32
bit
application.
Anyone
know how to get dosemu or some other DOS emulator to run winnt32.exe. Looks
like we need an updated
version
of dosemu, or a windows emulator. According to the micrisoft web site, winn32.exe
will not run from a dos shell, but will run fro a windows shell.
Any
suggestions on how to get an updated emulator in here would be appreciated.
Tom
