You need to have a valid setup.iss file for a silent Photoshop installation.

First make sure you don't have any setup.iss file in your C:\WINDOWS folder (to be sure the one we create is really made by us). If there is any, delete it or rename - it is not used by your system.

Next, launch the setup.exe from the command line with /r (or was it -r?) switch and go through the whole installation. After it's done, you will have a new setup.iss file in C:\WINDOWS folder. Copy it to you Photoshop setup dir (make sure you didn't have one there before, if you did, rename it).

The uninstaller needs a similar operation with /r switch.

<package
id="photoshop801"
name="Photoshop CS 8.0.1"
revision="1"
reboot="true"
priority="0">
<check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Adobe Photoshop CS" />

<install cmd="\\server\Admin\Non-MSI\Photoshop\setup.exe -s -f2c:\Windows\Temp\photoshop.log">
<exit code="0" />
</install>

<remove cmd="\\server\Admin\Non-MSI\Photoshop\uninstall\photoshop-uninstall.bat" />

<upgrade cmd="" />

</package>

The photoshop-uninstall.bat will look like this (in one line):

"C:\Programme\InstallShield Installation Information\{EFB21DE7-8C19-4A88-BB28-A766E16493BC}\setup.exe" -s -f1"\\edu\dfs\Admin\non-msi\photoshop\Uninstall\photoshop-uninstall.iss" -f2"C:\windows\temp\photoshop-uninstall.log"

Here's an other way if you have a differnet installer:

<package id="photoshopcs2" name="Adobe Photoshop CS2" revision="1" priority="0" reboot="false">
<check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Adobe Photoshop CS2" />
<install cmd='reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{236BB7C4-4419-42FD-0407-1E257A25E34D}" /v EPIC_REGS_TYPE /t REG_DWORD /d 0x00000004 /f' />
<install cmd='reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{236BB7C4-4419-42FD-0407-1E257A25E34D}" /v EPIC_REGS_STATE /t REG_DWORD /d 0x00000002 /f' />
<install cmd='reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{236BB7C4-4419-42FD-0407-1E257A25E34D}" /v EPIC_REGS_LANG /t REG_DWORD /d 0x00000002 /f' />
<install cmd='reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{236BB7C4-4419-42FD-0407-1E257A25E34D}" /v EPIC_REGS_COUNT /t REG_DWORD /d 0x00000000 /f' />
<install cmd='msiexec /l* c:\netinst\logs\photoshop.log /qn /i "\\server\share\adobe\photoshop-cs2\Adobe(R) Photoshop(R) CS2\Adobe Photoshop CS2.msi"' />
<remove cmd='msiexec /qn /l* c:\netinst\logs\UNphotoshop.log /x {236BB7C4-4419-42FD-1E257A25E34D}' />
<upgrade cmd= />
</package>
