Try to setupWindows Server 2003 Entreprise cluster with iSCSI storage using
unattended setup.

To deploy full "Microsoft iSCSI Initiator" using unattended setup, I tried :

- 1.06-initiator-x86fre.msi using msiexec.exe run from CmdLines.txt or
GuiRunOnce but driver and service setup interface can not be used by quiet
setup from msi.
- iscsiins.exe, command-line "iscsiins.exe /install /accepteula
/nouserinput" : from CmdLines.txt, install log iscsiins.log shows "cannot
find windows directory" ; from GuiRunOnce, setup never ends, others iscsi
and cluster start before full setup.
- iscsiins.exe, command-line "iscsiins.exe /install /accepteula /nouserinput
/svconly", initiator service setup works fine but driver not. I tried
"devcon.exe /install iscsi.inf *" but I obtain "devcon failed" and a null
scsi adapter appears in device manager.

Any idea to complete iSCSI setup ?
