silent deinstall of 8.1.7

[thomville]

Hello:

I am trying to uninstall the 8.1.7 client from about 200 workstation
using an rsp file. AFter the prerequisites apss, I am presented with
qan inventory selectiono scree, or, if running with the -silent
switch, I get an error message that no product has been selected for
deinstallation. The log is shown below - the response file is read,
which specifies the deinstall_list and remove_homes values. Any help?
