Intalling Windows 7
Understanding Setup
Windows Setup runs in 3 phases:
Windows Setup also has configuration passes. Each configuration pass performs a specific function and applies related settings from the Unattend.xml answer file.
You can customize the setup process at many phases through the use of answer files. The following list describes the answer files you use to customize the Windows 7 installation experience:
- Unattend.xml The generic name given to an answer file that controls most unattend-ed installation actions and settings for most phases. When named Autounattend.xml and placed in the appropriate folder, such as the root of a UFD, this file can fully automate installations from the original Windows 7 media.
- Oobe.xml Oobe.xml is a content file you use to customize the out-of-box experi-ence: Windows Welcome and Welcome Center.
