Suppress Reboot during installation

A

Andrea

I am installing Project 2002 Pro using SMS to a number of
client pc's. On some installations, Project reboots the
computer to finish. I would like to suppress the reboot
in the command line of the package in SMS. I looked on
the internet and came across 2 ways of doing this. I am
not sure which one will work. They are:
REBOOT=ReallySuppress - like in the PDF for the Project
install including the system Files updates or /noreboot.

I can not test it because it only reboots a very select
few machines. I would appreciate it if anyone can help.
Thanks
Andrea

Im not sure how to do this but I am even more unsure as to why you
would want to do it. If the install thinks it needs a reboot (maybe
setup detected an old version of MDAC or something) then it needs to
reboot and if you dont then the software you just installed is likely
not to work properly when the install is over.
It seems like a reboot would be easier to deal with then the users
trying to access the software and it not working then calling you
asking why you broke their machine. :)

Just a thought.
