Windows 7 Language Pack installations issues during OSD

[fr0zen]

Hey Guys,

 

I am hoping for some assistance here.

 

I am trying to install 2 optional language packs in Windows 7 deployment.

 

The language packs are located under:

\\server\Language Packs\fr-fr\lp.cab

\\server\Language Packs\ja-jp\lp.cab

 

The package i created point to \\server\Language packs\. The package does not consist of a program.

 

By default I would like all language packs to be always installed. Therefore no variables or unattend.xml file is being used.

 

It tries to install, but the ZTIPatches_DISM.log file ends up with errors. The file is about 10MB

 

 

some of the errors:

I got this issue fixed, but now I have another

 

The above error was resolved by removing a embedded windows update patch from the wim file. I had to use DISM to try and add the language back. Got the same error as above and I was able to trace a msu package that was giving a problem. The package was removed and the this step is working now.

 

Now the language packs install fine, but at the end of the setup it prompts with a Setup Windows dialog, asking user to select the default language for the system.

 

How do i skip this dialog and choose English as the default option?

 

my customsettings.ini already has the following

 

 

SkipLocaleSelection=YES

KeyboardLocale=0409:00000409

UILanguage=en-US

UserLocale=en-US

 

 

I am not using a unattended.xml, could that be the issue?

[fr0zen]

Looks like customsettings.ini Language settings do not get passed over the unattended.xml. Tested this a multiple times, maybe its a bug in MDT?

 

I was able to get the language pack work properly after using a unattended.xml with proper language selections.

You need to use a gather and a configure step in your task sequence to apply the settings to the local unattended.xml.
