       Unattended Install Instructions for Windows NT 4.0 
                         November 10, 1998
==================================================================

SUMMARY
=======
This procedure describes the process of doing an unattended 
installation of Windows NT 4.0 with the 3C575 family adapters.


REQUIREMENTS
============
-Windows NT 4.0 Workstation CD-ROM or source files from I386   
 directory
-An NT server to attach to
-DOS Client bootable diskette


FILE DESCRIPTION
================
Description of files for the unattended installation of the 3C575 
family found in 575UNAT.EXE

OEMSETUP.INF	-INF file for the 3C575 family
DOSNET.INF	-INF file which specifies location of source      
                 files that specific to each family
UNATTEND.TXT	-Example answer file for 3C575 family
TXTSETUP.SIF	-Setup file for text based installs that specific 
                 to each family
UNS.BAT		-BAT file for unattended installation

NOTE:  2 original NT files found in the I386 directory will be 
overwritten unless you rename them.  To keep these files intact, 
you should rename the following files so the originals are retained:

DOSNET.INF -> DOSNET.OLD
TXTSETUP.SIF -> TXTSETUP.OLD

Copy the unattended executable 575UNAT.EXE into the I386 directory 
and execute the file.  It will extract all the above files into the
I386 directory.



THE UNATTENED INSTALLATION
==========================
The unattended installation can be performed either on:
1)  Local hard disk
2)  An NT server

1)  If installing to your local hard disk:

Copy the I386 directory from the NT CD-ROM to the root directory 
of your local hard disk. Rename the 3 files as indicated above:  
DOSNET.INF, TXTSETUP.SIF.  Extract the unattended files into the 
I386 directory.  Boot using a floppy diskette loading HIMEM.SYS, 
EMM386.EXE, and SMARTDRV.EXE.  Loading these files makes the 
installation proceed much quicker.  Change directory to C:\I386 
or where ever your I386 directory is located. 

2)  If installing from an NT server:

Make sure you have the proper rights to access the NT server.  
You will need to have permissions to create directories and 
copy files to the NT server.  Copy the I386 directory from 
the NT CD-ROM to the root directory of the NT server.  Make 
sure the folder is shared and you are given full access to 
the folder. Rename the 2files as indicated above:  DOSNET.INF 
and TXTSETUP.SIF. Extract the unattended files into the I386 
directory of the NT server.  Place your Answer file into the 
I386 directory of the NT server. Create a DOS bootable floppy 
diskette which will connect you to the NT server.  This can 
be done from the NT server using the NETWORK CLIENT 
ADMINISTRATOR features.  Boot your laptop to the NT server 
and map a drive to the I386 directory.
	EX:  MAP X: \\NTSERVER\I386
Change directory to X:\ or where ever you have mapped the I386 
directory.  Launch the unattended installation using the 
following syntax:

WINNT /B /S:X:\I386 /U:X:\I386\<ANSWER.TXT>

/B	-signifies a diskless installation.
/S	-designates the location of the NT source files.
/U	-designates the unattended mode of installation and the 
	 path to the answer file. <ANSWER.TXT> - your answer file.

The installations should proceed to completion.



NT4 WORKSTATION/SERVER UNATTENDED INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
===========================================================   

1. If installing from CD-ROM, copy the NT source files to local hard 
   drive or distribution share on server.

2. Create the following directory structure under the source directory:

   NOTE: The \WINNT, \WIN32 and \NDIS3_4 directories should be created 
	 on the same directory level. Each is one level below the 
	 \3C575 directory. These directories and the files copied 
	 to them need to be in place in order to prevent file copy 
	 errors. These files are not actually used but are referenced 
	 by the OEMSETNT.INF file. If these files are not located in 
	 their respective directories, a file copy error will be 
	 generated and will thus force user intervention.

         I386
           |_DRVLIB.NIC
                	|_3C575
                  		|_NDIS3_4
				|_WINNT
                  		|_WIN32				

                 
3. Copy the following files to the I386\DRVLIB.NIC\3C575 directory 
   created in step 2. These files will be located in the root of 
   the install diskette. 

			ELPC575.DL_
			OEMSETUP.IN0
			OEMSETUP.INF
        

4. Copy the following files to the I386\DRVLIB.NIC\3C575\NDIS3_4 
   directory created in step 2. These files will be located in the 
   \NDIS3_4 directory on the install diskette. 

			EL575ND4.SY_
			EL575ND3.SY_
    

5. Copy the following files to the I386\DRVLIB.NIC\3C575\WINNT 
   directory created in step 2. These files will be located in 
   the \WINNT directory on the install diskette. 

			TC575CFG.DL_
			HWACCESS.DL_
			PCOMDRV.SY_

         
6. Copy the following files to the I386\DRVLIB.NIC\3C575\WIN32 
   directory created in step 2. These files will be located in 
   the \WIN32 directory on the install diskette. 

			TNICDIAG.EX_
			COMSMD.EX_
			TNICDIAG.HL_
			TVARADDR.TXT
			UN3C575.EX_


7. a) Open the \I386\DOSNET.INF file with a text editor. Add the 
      following entry under the [Files] section:

         [Files]
         d1,OEMSETUP.INF


   b) Open the \I386\TXTSETUP.SIF file with a text editor. Add the 
      following entries under the [SourceDisksFiles] and 
      [SourceDisksFiles.x86] sections:

         [SourceDisksFiles.x86]             
         OEMSETUP.INF = 1,,,,,,,20,0,0      

         [SourceDisksFiles]                           
         OEMSETUP.INF = 1,,,,,,,20,0,0      

             
8. Create or use the sample answer file (UNATTEND.TXT). This file will 
   be located in the \ directory.  Copy it to the I386 directory.  
   If you are using an answer file other than the sample provided, it 
   must contain the following entries:

	[Network]
	JoinWorkgroup = DOMAIN                    
	InstallAdapters = AdaptersList          
	InstallProtocols = Protocols 
	InstallServices = Services           

	[AdaptersList]
	ELPC575 = ELPC575params, d:\i386\drvlib.nic\3c575\

	[Protocols]
	NBF = NetBeuiParams 
	NWLNKIPX = NWLNKIPXParams                    

	[NetBeuiParams]

	[NWLNKIPXParams]

	[ELPC575params]
	AdapterType = 0
	BusNumber = 0
	BusType = 1
	DriverMode = 1
	InterruptNumber =  10
	IoBaseAddress = 4096
	IoLength = 127
	MediaType = 1
	MemoryMappedBaseAddress = 851968
	MemoryMappedSize = 4096
	OSType = 1
	PCMCIA = 0
	SocketNumber = 0
	TransmitBufferSize = 7168

	[Services]
	NWWKSTA = NWWKSTAParams

	[NWWKSTAParams]
	!DefaultScriptOptions = 0
    
  
9. Copy UNATTEND.txt to the root of the source directory. 
   
    Execute WINNT.EXE /B /S:< Source Path > /U:< Answer file path >
    Example:  WINNT /B /S:C:\I386 /U:UNATTEND.TXT

    This example points to the answer file which is located in the 
    root of the I386 directory. The /B parameter specifies a 
    floppyless operation.
