What kind of server are you trying to install to? It sounds to me like
Unattended isn't seeing the disk, so when I tries to mount /c (your C:
drive), it probably fails. However, the copy will continue - all the
files just get copied to the RAMdisk I think, which obviously then get
lost of the next reboot.

 

It could also that Windows Setup isn't seeing  the disk (as opposed to
linux) - it all depends how far you're getting through the installation
before it stops.

Subject: [Unattended] Windows Server 2003 R2 Install Issues

 

I've just started experimenting with Unattended as a way to quickly
deploy our Windows servers.  I think I've got it /almost/ working, but
I'm stuck at the actual install point.  I have it booting via PXE fine,
and I can go through the first portion of the install.

However, when the actual Windows Server 2003 R2 install starts, it tells
me it is unable to copy some files.  The first one it lists is
3145pcl.gpd, and then a couple more.  It will actually get to the end of
the file copy, and do the reboot of the PC.  Once the installer starts
again, it thinks for a while, and then tells me no previous version of
Windows NT can be found, so it cannot determine my machine is entitled
to the upgrade.


I've copied the contents of Windows Server 2003 Standard R2 VLK Disc 1
into the OS directory, and I've used the media many time for clean
installs, so I know the contents are fine.  Any suggestions would be
greatly appreciated!
