Win2K answer file setup ?

After I've completed setupmgr.exe I would like to use my answer file on a floppy disk in conjunction with the Win2K Pro installation CD. What files need to be on the floppy disk, because when I copy the unattend.txt to the floppy disk the Windows installation ignores the file on the floppy disk totally and goes through a regular install without being fully automated which is what I chose during the creation of the answer file. What am I doing wrong!
 
You need to rename the unattend.txt file to winnt.sif. W2K will only detect it if its in that form.
 
Yes I have done that, forgot to mention it, I've renamed the unattend.txt to winnt.sif but its giving an error on a certain line in the script. I've checked my unattend.txt file and everything should be correct.
