Latest changes to my unattended installs
In Vista they did a great job of changing the location of files and I have changed my XP unattended installs to mimic that behavior. Mainly because I have had a number of problems with applications breaking with the space in Program Files or Documents and Settings and since I don’t use My Documents for anything really I changed the location to something easy.
C:\Documents => My Documents
C:\Programs => Program Files
C:\Users => Documents and Settings
C:\Windows => Windows
My Images, My Video, My Music were all moved to F:\Downloads\[NAME without preceding 'My']
I really only use My Documents for saving temporary test scripts to test quickly. I also moved everything to DVD, because I realized a while back that a DVD will read about 10x faster than a CD (I felt dumb for not recognizing that). Since I was moving to DVD I created an additional directory outside my unattended that holds all the applications I install by hand, which I think is a couple hundred.
