I was so pumped to finally get rolling on deploying RSAT with MDT, hit this snag early on sadly. I copied the script text, edited the iso path and destination folder and removed the line 21/22 line break, and that's what it's giving me. :(

[sceptapular]

Ok, weird - I just copied and pasted each line one by one and it worked. Why would it be complaining when running the whole script?
