firefox 27.1 silent install and configuration(homepage, proxys and bookmark)
Hello, I am trying to perform a silent install and configuration for Firefox 27.1 but I am not able to get the same results I got with versions 26 and below. For these previous versions I used the method described in this link: http://www.mockbox.net/configmgr-sccm/174-install-and-configure-firefox-silently But for Firefox 27 creating the Mozilla.cfg and the other files doesn't seem to work. Could you please tell me how to silently configure the proxys and homepage on Firefox 27.1 during the install. I also need to add a bookmark during the installation. Could you please tell me how to do that as well? I found some methods saying I had to edit a bookmark.html file but I don't think this file is present on firefox 26 on. thank you in advance. regards.

thank you for your reply guigs2, unfortunately none of those links were helpful for me. As I mentioned in my question I already tried the silent install method using the Mozilla.cfg file. It worked for the previous versions but it doesn’t work for version 27 anymore. As for the INI file, that doesn’t help me either since I need to configure the homepage, proxies and bookmarks all during the installation, for the INI all I’ve seen is that you can configure INSTALLDIR, shortcuts etc. Configuring proxies, homepage and bookmarks through group policies as one of the solutions said is not an option for me, I need to do that during the silent install of Firefox 27.

thank you very much the-edmeister! this is awesome! I got to configure the homepage and proxies. For some reason the bookmark I added on cck2 still doesn't appear, do you have any idea why that would happen? I'll try to search for the application's help to see why that is happening anyway. thanks a lot! :)
