Hi Thanx,

It supports silent-mode installation. But current version has an issue on Vista/Win7 system. We will fully support silent-mode installation in next versions.

Thanks.

Hi,

I use xp64. can you tell me the possible switches or have you disabled the silent install in the current version?

Hi,

i found out how i can install the software in silent mode (inno setup).
This works without a problem.

How can i silently add a virtual disk with parameters or from a parameter file (.vdd)?
Is it possible to give the registration parameter to the installer?

Thanx Jens

Great, you've found the answer!

It's a bit late, but for those who have same question, the answer to silent installation is: use the following command line switches,

/VERYSILENT
Instructs Installer to be silent.

/NORESTART
Prevents Installer from restarting the system following a successful installation.

/LANG=language (multilingual version)
Specifies the language to use. Currently language can be en, chs, fra, rus and esn.

I am sorry that Primo Ramdisk doesn't support command line interface so far. We'll implement it later.

Hi,

thanx for the answer.

Here is my install string:

.\Primo.Ramdisk.Pro.Setup.5.3.0.exe /SP- /SILENT /NORESTART /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /DIR="%ProgramFiles%\Primo Ramdisk Professional Edition" /NOICONS=0 /GROUP="Primo Ramdisk Professional Edition" /TASKS="quicklaunchicon,!desktopicon" /LOG="%TEMP%\ramdisk.txt" /Lang=EN

When will you support commandline switches to create ramdisks ?

Thanx Jens

We'll implement CLI as soon as possible. However I am sorry that I cannot give you an exact release date because so far we got quite many feature requests.

Hi,

i have seen the new version and in the changelog there is this entry:

Support silent install mode

Is it now possible to create also ramdisk from a batch?

Thanx

Sorry for late reply as we were on public holidays. Current version only supports silent install mode, but still not support batch commands.

Command-line interface has been supported since version 5.6.0.
Now you can create a ramdisk in silent mode.
For more details, please see
