Auto Close Ketarin after install?

[Dameek]

I'm trying to automate my image and software installation process.

 

I must say that FOG (Free Open Ghost) and Ketarin have been A-M-A-Z-I-N-G together!!

 

I would like to be able to have ketarin install the programs I set in a .XML , dump the log into a file AND then close when it is completed.

 

start \\SERVERNAME\Ketarin\ketarin.exe /install= \\SERVERNAME\Ketarin\Base-Install-2.xml /log=C:\Tools\Ketarin-Install.txt

 

My problem is that once Ketarin has finished, it waits to be closed. I currently get around this be killing the Ketarin process on the last step of my installs.....but then I don't get the log file.

 

:Shutdown & Taskkill
shutdown -r -f -t 30
taskkill /IM Ketarin.exe /F

 

 

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Will add an /exit argument to the next version, so that Ketarin will automatically exit when done with installing.

Out of curiosity as an addition (actually I may have posted this idea elsewhere as well) could we have an argument for /install="<applicationanname>,<applicationname>,<applicationname>" so on and so forth? That way it can just parse an existing XML instead of us having to keep separate ones for separate things. Helps techies.

Aww, more options...I'll put it on the todo list somewhere

Has anyone else got this to work?

 

I've tried /exit at the end of my batch script but no luck

 

Thanks
