a few questions....
i want to run the install all from 1 CD instead of using a floppy to read the winnt.sif so...
once you have created the answer files and saved it and renamed the unattend.txt to winnt.sif would you simply place the 3 files created by the setup manager (unattend.bat, unattend.udb and winnt.sif) onto the root of the XP pro CD? and then burn this as a whole image? so that when i put the cd in it would startup automatically and do everything?

You'd have to place the winnt.sif file in your i386 folder and it'll be read just as if you had it on a floppy. You can indeed re-burn a copy of the cd and make it bootable. There's a process to it, however. You can search google for how to make a windows xp bootable cd. There's tons of guides out there.

yeah i get the grasp on how to create a bootable XP disc, but to also make it automated using the answer files i have created would i simply place the 3 files i mentioned previously into the i386 folder? would that work?
