The final section of the setup parameter file declares procedures you want performed when Setup is finished installing Windows. The options available are:
Statement Usage

endopt=exit This setting causes Setup to exit back to DOS at the end of the installation.
endopt=restart This option causes Setup to exit to DOS and then restart Windows upon completion of the installation.
endopt=reboot This option reboots the user's PC at the end of the Setup process.
