    I think the script should work just fine....but you can also use the earlier pre-activated dvd that you made...

    nononsense will the preactivated dvd work in upgrade? or does it have to be a clean install all the time?

    I never tried, but I don't see why it wouldn't work.

    activated. Upgrade did take longer though.

    thank you for this, but it still a bit messy for the end user..

    IT will be much more better and user friendly if you make a program with GUI instead of those bat files..

    also you can use "/Set-SKUIntlDefaults:fr-FR /Gen-LangINI /Set-SetupUILang" for setting the language options, it will create lang.ini..
    for AIO it also possible to integrate the languages to each index (/Add-Package), so you don't need to use the update method.

    I did start on a GUI but I had a HD die and will have to start over again

    the updates are installed with the /Add-package command that is why I have
    instructed to put the language packs in the updates folder

    the script generates the lang.ini as languages are added to boot.wim
    unfortunatly the commands you listed did not make the lang.ini the way
    I wanted. any language that is to be installed by setup by the langpacks
    folder on the root the DVD needs a fr-fr = 0 entry otherwise I got an error.
    it may work for AIO Ill have to play with it a little.

    ei.cfg tells the pc what version of windows7 is in the dvd. so you dont need it if your making an all in one window7 dvd

    but if your making a specific version of windows7 32bit 64bit or both then you need it.

    Does anyone knows how to install let's say 7-Zip x86 or x64 depending on the user selection of the x86 or x64 version during Windows 7 installation using an AIO DVD?

    EDIT: Nevermind... I found out:
