Now I can finally retry everything from an ISO image and in a VM and see whether the problems described before are caused by hfslip or only a result of the "transfer to USB" program. But not today, too late. Will report back tomorrow...

Okay, short followup. With the test install from CD in a VM everything worked as expected - no file copy errors (except my famous "tweakui.exe" problem ) and no other problems. So everything I experienced with the other install like several files not being copied, one update reported as missing, reg files in HFSVCPACK not being applied etc., seems to be the result of the above mentioned WinSetupFromUSB tool which apparently broke several things by fiddling with my source.

So my quest continues to find a way how I can install Windows from an USB stick, but based directly on thee ISO image or at least the SOURCESS folder with as few modifications a possible. Don't want to buy an external CD drive just for that one-time install to the netbook. But that's a story not belonging here, not hfslip related...

Tomalak, you need three utilities to achieve that:

- PeToUSB
- USB_prep
- Bootsect

I have a tutorial, but it is in spanish, I don't know if you can read spanish...(I doubt it)

Wait, here's the original tutorial in english:

bye!

Beta S provided. Added dx9 code provided by gluon. No other code changes. Thanks dude!

Please provide feedback. I'd like to get this thing out of beta. It's been over a year of betas so far.

Beta S looks good. NO error or whatsoever. (done with Wi 4.5, WMP11, IE8, latest dx). Thanks for the continuous improvement.

rev S looks good, thanks for adding the code tommyp it's a shame NoKillBits=YES does not seem to cover kb973525 in XP. Been reading your code but still can't understand that killbit business.... it's only one hotfix anyway so no worries
Overall, I'm very happy with this latest version

[tommyp]

The prob with the kill bits is that the initial killbits is set, various hotfixes overwrite things, and then in the end, one or two more still need to be set. HFSLIP just sets the appropriate killbits as late as possible during installation.

If you can, please do me a favor because I don't want to test out XP. Run hfslip with your current setup, install it on a VM. Obtain and install the freeware regshot program (google for it). Do a regshot, install the KB973525 hotfix, do another snapshot and compare the results. There will be some sort of HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility\{...nonsense...}","Compatibility Flags",0x00010001,0x00000400 ADDED to the registry. I just need the line or lines added or modified to the registry and I'll add it to the program. Actually, all I really need is the nonsense part of the changes. lol. Once that is done, then all will be cool.

[gluon]

Cool I'll do that without the NoKillBits=YES. I'm a bit curious abt the code that handles the NoKillBits, I'm reading it as:

IF NoKillBits != YES THEN
insert values in registry
END IF

Is my interpretation correct? Does that mean we would not modify the registry if NoKillBits=YES?
Sorry if I'm asking such stupid questions, I just feel that it's a bit counter intuitive and I'm curious.

Tomalak, you need three utilities to achieve that:

- PeToUSB
- USB_prep
- Bootsect

I have a tutorial, but it is in spanish, I don't know if you can read spanish...(I doubt it)

Wait, here's the original tutorial in english:

http://www.eeeguides.com/2007/11/installin...-usb-thumb.html

bye!

I tried this tutorial but when I install xp and the files are copied I get error: advpack.mui cannot be copied.

[tommyp]

gluon - Another favor... can you search through your sourcess\i386 folders for hf*.inf files that contain the text "973525"? If you find it, please zip it and attach it. Thanks!

Also, have you tried running the script with the nokillbits set as default in the hfslip.ini file? Or in other words, delete the nokillbits line.

[gluon]

I've always run without the NoKillBits=YES in HFANSWER.INI... or more accurately I'm commenting it out since I cannot determine the benefit. You can see the attached files.

[tommyp]

gluon - One more q for you. Sorry to piece meal you to death. On a clean installed machine and doing nothing else, does "973525" (no quotation marks) exist anywhere in the registry? I'm just trying to see if that INF file is actually installed at all.

I tried this tutorial but when I install xp and the files are copied I get error: advpack.mui cannot be copied.

Same for me (by the way, you can skip the error and continue), this seems to be a general problem with this kind of setup. I tried the above mentioned SetupWinFromUSB tool as well as WinToFlash, identical result. So yesterday I decided to use the direct approach - put WinPE to an USB flash disc with SOURCESS folder on it (no problem when installed from CD to a VM, so the source is okay), booted from it, launched Windows installation via "winnt32.exe".

Installation was overall successful, but: seven or eight *.mui files reported as missing during text mode copy (I have the names if anyone is interested). Some more *.mui and one .dll reported as missing during GUI phase. $OEM$ folder was apparently not copied, so my drivers included there were not used. "winnt.sif" (resp. "unattend.txt" for non-CD based install) was not considered at all, braking some customizing settings I put there. Everything foreseen for T-13 (HFSVCPACK_SW1 and HFSVCPACK_SW2) was installed as intended, but everything that is usually performed after first boot during logon (e.g. some registry tweaks I have in HFSVCPACK, or putting the hfslip entry in the software list) was not executed.
In the end I had a working system, but not one I was satisfied with. All not critical issues, but nuisances. The different setup method that is used for USB based installs (copying everything to the "$win_nt$.~bt" and "$win_nt$.~ls" folders first, and obviously making some other changes, all by "winnt32.exe") has apparently its problems...

Conclusion: I probably have to swallow the bitter pill, buy an external CD drive and install XP to the netbook from there. The ISO image seems to be the only reliable way that works without all this hassle

Sorry for the offtopic talk (will give up at this point anyway, need a working system now and no more time for tests in the next feew weeks),
Tomalak

[jvidal]

You don't need to buy an external drive, just buy an ide/sata to USB bridge (about USD$20), and use any old IDE CD you might have lying around (it's what I did for when I need to install junk to Netbooks)

You can use it to plug any IDE/SATA drive when you need to back stuff up or recover stuff from a disk installed on a dead PC, etc...

bye!

No worries mate, I've been doing it on VM... still fine tuning my HFCLEANUP. Yeah it's in Windows XP\SP4\Updates just like the rest of the hotfixes.

Note: I put KB973525 in the HF folder which resulted in the INF file and registry entry. But for the regshot report I followed your instructions.

[tommyp]

Gluon - can you rename that same inf file you located before and place it into the HFSVCPACK folder? Rerun the script and test out.

Is anyone else beside gluon having probs with KB973525 on XP?

[gluon]

Yes it works Took out the hotfix from HF folder and placed the INF file in HFSVCPACK made MBSA 2.1 reports the killbits as being installed.
Is this the final solution for the killbit issue?

[tommyp]

Nope, that's not the final solution. Maybe by the weekend, I'll post a new beta up that addresses this.

[chtom]

Hi, I have test this beta S (October 20, 2009).
It's work with XP French : SP3 + IE8 + Last DirectX + WMP11.
after reboot, I need install only :
- Windows Genuine Advantage Validation Tool (KB892130) when access "Windows Update"
- Windows Genuine Advantage (KB905474) when access "Windows Update"

Thanks a lot !

The problem is iso file take 705 Mo (739,743,744 octets)
