Thanks for that bit of advice about mount points. I added that to my script.
This morning I burnt the whole thing to a CDRW, cloned a clean copy of win2k in vmware, and tried out my install procedure. It seems to be working just fine. So I have any automated install going with a few batch files, perl, and shell scripts. It probably would be best to implement the perl script as a shell script, but I'm more comfortable with perl, which I need for this project anyhow, so I just did it that way. I'll package up my scripts and post them in a bit when I have then cleaned up a little and am sure everything is working. -- Joseph Annino Consulting - Perl, PHP, MySQL, Oracle, etc. [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.jannino.com On 2/6/02 12:26 AM, "Michael A Chase" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > If you are going to execute them from your Perl script, you don't need to > remove the .done. > > Don't forget to add c:\cygwin\bin (or the equivalent) to the system %PATH%. > > You also need to save and restore mount points: > > # Save the mount points > # (can run under either bash or cmd.exe or command.com) > mount -m > mounts.bat > > REM Restore the mount points > REM (could also run in bash, but bash would need the mount points) > mounts > -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
