Well I've posted a guide on eeepc forum , and successfully got an installation down to 2.51Gb (can be further slimmed, I kept 400mb of language files).

with a video tutorial as well.

Have fun

thx for the good ini

u could remove more with packages remove

just clear the printer from vlite removal list

and use dism.exe to remove the printer driver its will save more 300-400mb :)

here the package name:

Microsoft-Windows-Printer-Drivers-Package~31bf3856ad364e35~x86~~6.1.7000.0

aviv00 what did you remove from Windows 7 with vlite? Or you're using Win2008 server converted to workstation?

im waiting for web server r2 to be public

i tested win7 64bit to find if there a boot problem and there are not [ winserver 7 6801 had that problem]

i used kazuni's ini from his guide to make win7 eee platform and use dism to remove the printer as well

so it got smaller from 11giga install size to 6.5giga [64bit]

im having problem with DISM, I already using administrator account but elevated permission is still required, why is that?? and oh! by the way im using currently using windows 7, I just can't wait for it xD so ill gonna tinker it for my personal curiosity

did u tried to lower the uac ? or disable it

alas ive finally manage to get it work! ive already mounted it and also unhide the packages (BTW wnuku finally updated his work). So how I'm gonna save the list of packages on to log file and also how can i remove it? I'm really excited about the outcome. Thanks For The work guys

and about the UAC its kinda buggy, Windows Gadgets doesn't work when UAC is Turn Off, and i dont like the overwriting windows gadgets with vista gadgets, cause its not transparent at all.

Update:

got it work hurray!!! ive try to delete printer driver package and its works like a charm, any list of packages out there that can be remove? now the problem is how will i save the packages on to the log file

Update:

Ive finally generate list of packages using clip command, now gonna tinker it

I'm getting confused about ~amd64~ thing, do you think its OK to remove amd64 based packages? cause my processor is Intel Pentium Dual Core, and all packages are ~amd64~ and btw it is x64 windows 7

A few days ago i did a very basic vlite to remove extra drivers, tablet pc, media center and languages to install on an Aspire One netbook with a 160GB HD (box said 120 but hey :) )

It works extremely well, RAM usage is about double of the pre-installed XP, it's normally hovering just below 500MB. I can confirm that it's definately as quick as XP on the Atom processor, and now when I switch to XP (dualbooting them) it feels like I've booted into the stone age. Kind of like the feeling when you first got aquainted with XP after living with Win9x.

Anyway, I've had an error when it comes to activation. slui.exe fails due to SCARDDLG.dll is missing. unfortunately I've already deleted my .iso and the vlite settings, but I'm fairly certain I didn't remove anything else other than mentioned above.

Wether this information is useful or not to anyone I don't know - after all I may have removed something else and I've simply forgotten - but I thought it was worth mentioning in case it is.

So for now it's back to the default install, I didn't notice any performance differences between this and a regular install, i just tried it to free up a bit of space :)
