Disclaimer:The process described herein was developed from BETA Windows
           8 software and is subject to change with future releases of
           that Operating System.

I. A note about computer names in Microsoft networks

   It is important to not have two computers with the same network 
   name on the network at the same time, or being installed at the
   same time.  Consequently you can not use these files by themselves
   to deploy Windows98 on multiple computers, without manually 
   changing the computer name value.

   Different configuration managers exist to overcome
   this hurdle in enterprise OS deployments.  For more information 
   on deploying Windows 98 in an enterprise network consult the 
   Windows 98 resource kit


II. Setting up an Install Directory on the file server

Note:  The network share Z:\PUSH is used here as an example path to the
       distribution folder.  The distribution folder is where the setup
       files for Windows 98 reside.  During the first step of the
       install, the client will connect to the distribution folder with
       IPX or TCP/IP.

Before an unattended server based setup of Windows 98 can occur 
a directory needs to be prepared.

1.  Copy the Win98 setup folder from the CD to Z:\PUSH.  Use 
    Explorer, Winfile or XCOPY in order to maintain the same 
    directory structure as on the CD.

2.  From the Configuration and Drivers Diskette provided with the
    adapter, copy the following files and directories into Z:\PUSH:

A:\NET82557.INF   -->   Z:\PUSH\NET82557.INF
A:\82557NDI.DLL   -->   Z:\PUSH\82557NDI.DLL
A:\WIN98\PUSH\CUSTOM.INF   -->   Z:\PUSH\CUSTOM.INF
A:\WIN98\PUSH\MSBATCH.INF  -->   Z:\PUSH\MSBATCH.INF
A:\NT\*.*   -->   Z:\PUSH\NT\
A:\NDIS\*.*   -->   Z:\PUSH\NDIS\
A:\DOS\*.*   -->   Z:\PUSH\DOS\

3.  Review the copy of MSBATCH.INF within the Z:\PUSH directory,
    make any changes needed to customize the install for your
    network.

III. Deployment Methods

There are many ways to perform an unattended installation or upgrade
including but not limited to:

  - Setting up a login script that executes a setup statement when
    each user logs in

  - Inserting an object in an email message that runs setup when the 
    user clicks it

  - Using Microsoft SMS server to run Windows 98 Setup

  - Inserting a floppy that shares a drive on the network and runs
    setup from the shared drive

  - Copying the files to a local drive and then running an unattended
    setup from there

In the end each Network Administrator will find the easiest way
to accomplish this goal for his or her own network.

To avoid possible areas where an unattended installation might be 
halted we recommend you use the following setup command line however
you may be deploying Windows 98:

SETUP /IS /IM /IE /IW

IV. Where to get help

The Windows 98 Resource kit contains detailed information on
unattended setups and deploying Windows 98 in an enterprise 
environment.

  • Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.

  • Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.

  • From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.

  • Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.

Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
