Hello all, this is my first topic in this forum
I used the "WinSetupFromUSB" and it's amazing because it allow me to put all the files I need in one partition however I want to put the installations files in a sub folder and make the boot read them in another words I don't want the boot to read the setup from the root. so what modification should I do to the files for this purpose ?

Maybe what you want is to install from a .iso image.

I hope we are not (again/still) in this situation :ph34r: :

See:

and/or install from a minimal PE:

You may also try beta9, it's still being tested, hence not yet announced, which automates the process- Vista and above is installed from an ISO file, supporting as many ISOs as you want. WAIK files are not needed.

Edit: updated link with the newest test version.
