Hi,

I just realised that mangal.ttf is not on my MultiBootDVD and I can view hindi website (newspaper sites).

Actually I have a nlited setup which have only English language. Now enabling languages would increase the ISO size, If I add mangal.ttf entry into txtsetup.sif I belive that would copy the font mangal.ttf into system32 folder.

Keeping this in mind I added mangal.ttf into txtsetup.sif
under
[SourceDiskFiles]
mangal.ttf = 1,,,,,,22,0,0,,1,22

[FileFlags]
mangal.ttf = 16

and copied mangal.tt_ into system32

Now while installing XP gives error "Error in line 1 txtsetup.txt and I remove the above entry it works fine.

Balder plz help.

First I can tell you that nlite is not my favorite as it causes so much problem to people (and me as third part :angry: ).
Further more, I really do not have any clue how to fix this odd issue :O

I guess that you have to start all over again with the original source ???
Sorry… :(

Regards balder

Hi Zia Abbas.

In my previous WinXP installation, I had to do something similar to install a RAID driver not provided on the original CD. Actually, I have found that particular font in my TxtSetup.Sif  file.

You code is correct, except the fact that there is one separator missing: between the first "1" (which represents the source disk as described in sections such as [SourceDisksNames.x86]) and the "22" (which is the destination directory as specified in section [WinntDirectories]), you should have seven columns. In you sample, you have only six.

Then, if this still does not work, remove the entry in section [FileFlags]:

Because I do not have it on mine and the installation works fine.

Hope this helps.
