Hi there,
I have got myself into a bit of a stick. I created an unattended
script for deploying windows 2000, complete with Service pack 4 and
hot fixes rolled into the distribution folder. I have since used this
image to build machines for SYSPREP, and have deployed about 20
machines thus far. All was going well until I tried to install the
adminpak.msi for administrative purposes. I have tried both the
sp4adminpak.msi and the adminpak.msi from the server tools folder.
However both of these options prompt me to insert the windows service
pack 4 CD, 'The CD you provided is the wrong CD.
Please insert the Service Pack 4 CD into your CD-ROM drive.' I am
wondering what I need to do. Does anybody know the name for the ISO CD
of the Windows 2000 Service Pack 4. Or another workaround? I have
turned off digital driver signing under System Properties.
Many TIA
Regards
Andrew
 
OK HAve worked a little more on this and have found...
When installing Windows 2000 Administrative tools, the user was
requested to install the Windows Service pack 4 CD. I recreated the
build normally ie with Windows 2000 CD and then applied service pack 4
(not the previous method which involved creating an i386 folder with
all the service packs and hotfixes rolled in). I then imaged the
machines using Sysprep1.1 and the HP D530s computers to create images
for the machines. The issue still exists, in that the user is asked
for the Windows 2000 Sp4 CD, when installing extra MS management tools
like Win2k admin tools. I even tried to service pack the install again
with sp4 before imaging, again still same result. The workaround is
that you need to re install sp4 after the sysprep has been done, ie
after you receive the machine, before installing some of these
management tools. Please note that this issue should not affect end
users, as they have no need for these mgt tools.
Hope this helps somebody in the future,
Regards
Andrew
