Here's one for that I can't figure out.

Has anyone been sucessful at adding programs like MS Visual Studio 2005 or any applications that have multiple install cds to MS Deployment/BDD?  MS Mappoint is another one that has two cd's.

Kinda kooky eh?  My original thought was to copy the contents of the cds to one folder then just pull them over that way, but because there are folders on both or all cd's with the same name it doesn't work.

Just curious if anyone has seen this or found a solution for it

As always ....thanks

Jason

Jason,

I suggest looking at the readme file for each product. They often describe how to automate installation. The best resource for learning how to automate the installation of any program is the Program KB at AppDeploy.com.

Best, Jerry

I haven't tried this- have the docx for the unattend if you want it.
