2944.0. "Unattended install of Win95 with layered products?" by EPS::16.83.240.2::amuzed::boebinger () Thu May 29 1997 20:42

With NT, it is possible to create a network share that has the NT 
installation  files as well as layered products (such as Office 95, etc.).  
When a user performs an install from this area, then without answering any 
questions it installs NT and the layered products.  This is done using the 
SYSDIFF tool.

Is there any similar procedure for Win95?  Like the NT situation, the idea is 
to create a network share from which Win95 and layered products can be 
installed without the end user having to go through complete installation 
procedures.

Yeah - no probs. I have done this for a customer who wanted to upgrade 2000 
users with no user intervention.

What I should do is send you the word docs that I created for this 
customer. Send me your mail address and I'll reply with the docs.
