ADVANCED INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS ************************************************************ The following SETUP flags are available: -? Help information for the setup flags (shown below) -S Silent install (no user prompts) -B Forces a system reboot after installation -P Supplies target installation path -A Extracts all driver files (does not install driver) to if -P is also supplied, or the default directory otherwise -N Installs all components except driver -O Supplies target Start Menu Program Folder name if installing Companion applet -L Forces a particular language install (See Section 3 for a table mapping to language) -build Displays build number -f2 Creates a log file in with ; this is to be used during silent installation. -noqfe Prevents Microsoft patch from being installed. The patch prevents a blue screen from occurring when attempting to play audio content from CDs in digital mode on Windows 98, Windows 98 SE, and Windows Me. -PIO_ALL Causes all devices installed in system to run in standard PIO transfer mode rather than optimal transfer mode. Useful for troubleshooting device issues. *** "Package-for-the-web" requires that an additional -A be placed before any flag. Therefore, an example file extraction would be IATA_CD -A -A -P C:\ *** Notes: Flags and their parameters are not case-sensitive. Flags may be supplied in any order, with the exception of the -S and -L flags which must be supplied last. When using the -A flag, a target path may be specified via the -P flag, and the -O, -L, -S, and -N flags are ignored. When using the -P or -O flags, a space is required between the flag and the argument; when using -L and -f2, however, there should be no space. When using the -f2 flag, a log file name and path must be specified. To load just the driver as outlined in the Microsoft* document, "Deployment Guide Automating Windows NT Setup," use the supplied TXTSETUP.OEM file included in this package and insert the lines below into the UNATTEND.TXT file.
