Hi,

I am trying to install a new instance of Windows 2003 Standard Server using
unattended installation by calling the following command in my bootdisk.

Z:\i386\winnt /s:z:\2OS\i386 /u:A:\unattend.txt (where Z: is a mapped drive
on the network; the network portion of my unattend.txt is attached at the
bottom of this post. ).

When this command was executed, the installation all went well except that
the network adapter 1 fails to receive the static IP settings.

I have a feeling that its just a simple setting that I've missed - any
suggestion? Oh, btw, did I mention that the NIC driver needs to be added
into the \$OEM$\$1\PnpDrvs directory.

TIA
