1.15.3 Interactive CAB Install

 If the CAB installer requires user interaction that must be performed

during the AutoStart CAB installation process, you can specify a special

file name to disable the silent mode installation. If this mode is specified,

the CAB file will be installed with

Wceload without any command line

arguments specified.

An example of what AutoStart would execute is:

\Windows\Wceload.exe <cab file>

To force this mode of installation via AutoStart, rename the CAB file to include a ‘_’

character before the “.cab” extension of the file.

Example:

“File.cab” should be renamed “File_.cab” to force AutoStart to not

install the CAB in silent mode. This specially-named CAB file should be placed in the

AutoStart folder with other CAB files intended for installation on the next reboot.

1.15.4 Autostart.ini

A file named ‘PreAuto.ini’ can also be created in addition to or

instead of Autostart.ini. PreAuto.ini is executed before CAB files in

the \FlashDisk\Cab folder are installed. Autostart.ini is executed after

CAB files in the \FlashDisk\Cab folder are installed. The format for

the PreAuto.ini is identical to that of Autostart.ini..”

NOTE

Autostart.ini is a text file that AutoStart will run upon startup of the Lynx, and after any

CAB files are installed. This file should be placed in the \FlashDisk folder. AutoStart

will run the Autostart.ini file on each reboot of the device.

Line Formatting

Each line of the

Autostart.ini can consist of Autostart options, an executable,

and any command line arguments.

< Autostart option(s)> <full path to executable>

Sample:

- \windows\pword.exe \file.doc
