Those three others were already covered. I think you were a bit behind on updates with that file...

You know what? Something is weird when I run it with compression option D. In fact, even when I run HFSLIP with the new DBLBINXP.EXT file and execute dumpdupes.cmd again, I still end up with a list showing this:

aec.sy_
kmixer.sy_
ntkrnlpa.ex_
ntkrpamp.ex_
splitter.sy_
wdmaud.sy_

And this is with the new DBLBINXP.EXT!! Oh, and I've always had the latest version.

thanks again TC!
i will experiment on my builds again ... removing HFs that i recently added including those from the_guys list ... (no offense meant sir ) ... i think i got more or less 5 of those which i didn't have before that i downloaded ...

i have 2 optical drives in my setup now ... H & I ... while J is a virtual drive ...

really hope it'd be good builds to report when i get back ...

@Super-Magician: Sorry... My bad... Check 1.0rc1

[Super-Magician]

Thanks, Tomcat76 .

[Camarade_Tux]

rc1 ?


And is there anything to change to get rid of the files mentionned by Super-Magician; I'd like to avoid running hfslip again.

Thanks.

[Tomcat76]

Not really. You can use the latest version of DBLBINXP.EXT in HFCLEANUP to have it done automatically by HFSLIP, or do it by hand afterwards.

[the_guy]

little thing, might save a kb or 2. Before the CAB compression options, COMPMEM is set to 21. How come you have it set to 21 again if you select option D.

Example:

SET COMPMEM=21
<snip>
IF /I "%DRIVERCOMP%"=="B" SET COMPMEM=20
IF /I "%DRIVERCOMP%"=="C" SET COMPMEM=18
IF /I "%DRIVERCOMP%"=="D" SET COMPMEM=21&SET MULTICAB=ON
IF /I "%DRIVERCOMP%"=="E" SET COMPMEM=20&SET MULTICAB=ON
IF /I "%DRIVERCOMP%"=="F" SET COMPMEM=18&SET MULTICAB=ON

Shouldn't it be

SET COMPMEM=21
<snip>
IF /I "%DRIVERCOMP%"=="B" SET COMPMEM=20
IF /I "%DRIVERCOMP%"=="C" SET COMPMEM=18
IF /I "%DRIVERCOMP%"=="D" SET MULTICAB=ON
IF /I "%DRIVERCOMP%"=="E" SET COMPMEM=20&SET MULTICAB=ON
IF /I "%DRIVERCOMP%"=="F" SET COMPMEM=18&SET MULTICAB=ON

Just my 0.02.

@Kiki: Tomcat76 repackaged RogueSpear's VMWareTools switchless installer so that it is more compatibile with HFSVCPACK. You can download that version here. It is working well for me so far.

[Camarade_Tux]

XP SP2 French is OK here.

[tain]

1.0 is out! Wahoo!

Great job, Tomcat76 and everyone else!

[Camarade_Tux]

[retalv]

But without FORCEEXIT… it would have been beautiful. I will create one script to insert it…

Ciao!

[Tomcat76]

@retalv...

I can't do that because nobody can then see the difference between a successful run and a crash.

[retalv]

Sorry, but I do not understand…

before
--------
CALL :MAKEISO
CALL :TIMECALC
PAUSE&EXIT

after
------
CALL :MAKEISO
CALL :TIMECALC
IF NOT DEFINED FORCEEXIT (PAUSE&EXIT) ELSE (EXIT)

Not being documented and disabled by default in how many persons tasks they would have used it?

However I have resolved filtering your job with a script that, before launch HFSLIP-1.0.CMD, executes the substitution inserting timeout (ping -w 5000 127.0.0.1>nul) before the exit instruction… 5sec for view any error displayed...

@Echo off
Del MYHFSLIP.CMD
cls

Echo +------------------------------------------+
Echo Procedura di modifica HFSLIP in corso...
Echo +------------------------------------------+
Echo.

Set HFCMD=none
For /f %%i in ('dir /b HFSLIP*.CMD') do (set HFCMD=%%i)

Echo rem +------------------------------------------+> MYHFSLIP.CMD
Echo rem HFSLIP PATCHATO PER AUTOMATIZZARE USCITA>> MYHFSLIP.CMD
Echo rem +------------------------------------------+>> MYHFSLIP.CMD
Echo.>> MYHFSLIP.CMD

For /f "delims=" %%i in (%HFCMD%) do (
If "%%i" EQU "PAUSE&EXIT" (
echo %SystemRoot%\SYSTEM32\ping.exe -w 5000 127.0.0.1>nul>> MYHFSLIP.CMD
echo EXIT>> MYHFSLIP.CMD
) ELSE (echo %%i>> MYHFSLIP.CMD)
)

Echo +------------------------------------------+
Echo Modifica di HFSLIP terminata!
Echo +------------------------------------------+
Echo.
Echo.

Call MYHFSLIP.CMD
Del MYHFSLIP.CMD
Exit

Ciao!

I won't add it and people are urged to disregard the above.

If HFSLIP exits out 5 seconds before the end, you think everything is OK but it's not.

[Super-Magician]

Plus, most people aren't at their computers waiting for HFSLIP to finish every time they run it!

Thanks for the final, Tomcat76. Great job to everyone who helped! To do: IE7

For what this regards me is the last one post on the argument, but for clarity I would want to emphasize that the first demanded modification did not make some damage, being left the functionality of the unchanged script.

The problematic is other…

I guess the first edit you mentioned to introduce a variable for HFANSWER.INI could be implemented, but I think it would cause more trouble than it would help.

Strange. "wmlaunch.exe" is part of MP10Setup.exe. Are you removing it with nLite or something?

How are you installing "IBM System Update" after the final reboot?

Sorry for the delay, just now got back to testing....

I am not doing anything extra to my source except HFSLIPing it. No removals / No additions. OOOps, actually one change that I made (that isn't affecting pre 17a & 17b code) is that I've added the donet 1.1 executable in due to a problem I was having getting it to install later on TabletPC with (dotnets) 1.0 and 2.0 at first [GUIRUNONCE] logon (I run a CMD that installs all apps I want on machine such as Office, Notes,IBM System Update).

I see a final has been released. I will try with that.

hi everyone!
it's not a surprise to find out that upon gettign back there is already a final ... not that i wasn't expecting it! it's great to have a new final again! however, much as i would like to share everyone's success in their builds, i was not successful in any attempts using even 61020a ... tried the following trial & error:
(1) took out most, if not all, in HFSVCPACK,
(2) took out all WMP10 HFs
(3) removed from the equation Sep & Oct HFs
(4) removed some addons from HFAAO
(5) tried using XP Pro Gold & XP Pro SP1 as sources
--- the results were the same
(1) not setting DELCATS = 1 causes installation to be stuck at T-39
(2) RC is stuck at T-13 while Checking for disk space ... no other option but to cancel (this is despite waiting for it for hours)
(3) at some point, it gets stuck at T-1, thus installation does not complete
--- when successful (if installation succeeds)
(4) media player quits when being launched ... it begins with Upgrading database ... shows briefly ... and then quits
(5) launching windows explorer or even my computer ... just does nothing ... window refreshes (as taskbar goes away & then comes back) & still explorer is not launched

please note there was no copying issue at all while still in text mode ...
ah ... it was truly frustrating for me ... i'm sorry!
the last build that was successful for me was still way back Aug ... 60810 & using some other test releases after it ... all in Aug ...

only thing positive on these runs was no duplicate files present anymore when running dumpdupes ...

i have attached some files that might shed clue to my predicament ...
any feedback would be greatly appreciated
thanks!
