I am Installing win XP (Unattended) through the network .. I am using the
available partition.
I managed to rename
"C:\windows" >>> using : TargetPath="WinXPSP2"
And "C:\Documents and Settings" >>> using: Profilesdir="C:\Profiles"
But I failed to rename "program files" using the same method:
like this : Programfilesdir="c:\Installation1"

The reason of doing this is to avoid going back to "program files" folder
and canceling the old contents manually.

Please help ... I really need to know this one ...

Thank you

I have never try, but normally, the switch is ProgramFilesDir. Maybe, your
problem becomes because you don't use a correct case, but it looks strange.

Have a look to http://unattended.msfn.org/global/reference.htm to have a
winnt.sif reference.
