Hi,
The log file location will depend on the point of when the installed failed:
Before the installation starts in WinPE Pass – x:\windows\panther – WinPE only - Use Shift+F10 to open command window and run notepad.exe
After installation starts – c:$Windows.~BT\Sources\panther - Use Shift+F10 to open command window and run notepad.exe
After installation is completed – c:\windows\panther
Log files to review:
Setupact.log – master log file for the whole installation process.
Setuperr.log – smaller version of Setupact.log, but only includes the errors. This should be the first log to look at.
Cbs_unattend.log - this log records the package setup and answer file processing.
Or what is the "other" procedure to install drivers via unattend.xml file?
We could also follow the official method of installing drivers through a UNC path.
