Hi. Can someone out there give me a full explanation of exactly what the "Requires Drive Letter" option does on the Environment page of the New Program Wizard? Does it map a drive letter to the Program's locally cached folder on the client? And then runs the command line from that mapped drive? For example: Maps X: to C:\windows\syswow64\ccm\cache\1234567.System, then runs X:\Setup.exe?
The reason I am asking is that I am trying to deploy Adobe Reader 11, including the 11.0.06 patch, in one command line:
AcroRead.msi /qn PATCH=AdbeRdrUpd11006.msp
However, I must reference a full, absolute path to the MSP file in the command line, or else the install will fail (Error 1635). I have tried PATCH=.\AdbeRdrUpd11006.msp, and I don't believe you can use %~dp0 in an SCCM command line.
I also know that I could just use a batch or vbs script to get this to work, but I prefer to stick with an SCCM command line because then any errors or other issues with the installation are properly reported back to SCCM server.
So, do you think the "Requires Drive Letter" option would help me in this situation?
Thanks in advance!
