I want to install Delphi automatically on a machine . I use a .cmd script to start the installer in silent mode, and perform some additional tasks. I works if Delphi was already installed because it will find the .slip file.

But when I want to install Delphi in a brand-new computer I don’t have a .slip file, the installer will simply stop.

The documentation says that I can provide a .slip file via command line. But obviously I don’t have a .slip file yet.
The documentation stops here.

This makes the silent installer pretty much useless.
