Hi, i'm a first time user of windows unattended cd creator.

My question is : I have created with success an unattended windows xp now i would like to have a directory c:\PORTABLE with several other directories with portable programmes (GIMP, FIREFOX portable, NOTePAD portable enz....) So just copy to the directory portable and thats it. How do i do this in the program windows unattended cd creator?

TX anyone, anywhere, anytime, anyhow.
1. integrate portable soft as any another soft in CD
2. as install step use xcopy instead of "anysetup.exe" like:
xcopy "%cdrom%\portable\firefox" "c:\progs\firefox" /S /R

this copy a directory from CD to your directory on HDD. Read more help about xcopy in internet.
I have tried with :
xcopy %CDROM%\Software\Portable" "c:\Portable" /R /S

and it doesn't work.

What did i do wrong?

one quote is missing!
xcopy "%CDROM%\Software\Portable" "c:\Portable" /R /S
Thank you very much.
It works great now.
Only the program asks me if its a file or a directory so i needed another switch

xcopy "%CDROM%\Software\Portable" "c:\Portable" /R /S /I

i have put an /I after it , does that seems right to you or is it in the wrong place?

That is unimportant. And I think it better to use /Y instead of /R
