2.3.5 Text-Only Driver Installation
Text-based Installation mode is used automatically when the driver kit installer runs on a server with the Server Core
installation option of Windows Server. During text-based installations, AutoPilot Installer uses a command prompt window.
The driver kit installer notifies you when the driver is installed and also gives you an opportunity to stop the installation.
Whether AutoPilot Installer is launched from the command line or run as a program, Windows always starts AutoPilot
Installer as a separate stand-alone task. This means that AutoPilot Installer has its own command prompt window and cannot
access other windows.
2.3.6 Unattended Driver Installation
An unattended driver installation, sometimes referred to as a quiet or silent installation, requires no user input. This is useful
for performing an installation remotely from a command script, or if you want to ensure that a custom configuration is not
changed by a user during installation.
In unattended installation mode, AutoPilot Installer performs the following actions:
 Reads the configuration file
 Reads any options that might be specified on the command line, overriding the configuration file settings as appropriate
 Opens the installation report file
 Validates the operating system
 Discovers adapters and records the adapter inventory in the report file
 Verifies mandatory configuration file parameters
 Searches for drivers to install based on the LocalDriverLocation setting in the configuration file
 Verifies, if appropriate, that the selected driver is either a different type than the currently installed driver or a more
recent version of the currently installed driver
