Need to add 2nd CD to Unattended Installation..How??

[PhilsterUK]

I have created a Windows 2000 Unattended Installation that is now widely used in my organisation. Aside from Win2K it also installs a number of applications.

I am wanting to add more applications to the install but this will need a 2nd CD. I want to get it so after the first CD has done it's thing, the user is prompted to insert the 2nd CD and press any key and the installation will continue.

I already have the apps setup to install silently, I just need to know how to prompt the user and then for the install to continue.

Thanks in advance

Is the unattended install done from the server, or did you just create an answer file?
If done from a server you can add the run once line into the answer file and include the two CD's setup commands into the answer file, this would entail having both cd's copied to a share on the server and having the complete path specified in the answer file for both disks.
Ther are good examples of the sif syntax in the deploy folder of the w2k cd.
