@Kiki
(2) Which hotfix?
(4) I think not. I'll have to check again.
(5) I'll have to see the TXTSETUP.SIF and the SYSOC.INF from that run. If everything's fine there, the problem is with the addon.

(2) already dealt with (KB883921) ... hotfix removed from the list ...

i think though it would be great to still have the facility for checking of hotfix(es) that add(s) folders

60510a does Adobe/Macromedia Flash Player from SWFLASH.CAB. HFSLIP slipstreams it properly but I wasn't able to verify yet if Windows setup complains about a "non-standard system file" and if it's actually being installed.

OK... I see nothing wrong there except that you got duplicate entries in SYSOC.INF because you included both version 1.0 and version 1.1 of the VistaCG addon. But you said you tried it with only one version too and the result was the same. HFSLIP did what it had to do so I don't know what's wrong.

Not sure what you want me to do here. HFSLIP doesn't support the RVM Update Pack...

[Super-Magician]

Tomcat, are you planning to fix the SVCPACK issue that I mentioned in the KB913433 topic?

I will test the SWFLASH.CAB using 60510a. However, keep in mind that if you slipstream this, you do not need KB913433. (For the past few runs, not including the one using 60509b, I've actually been using a switchless installer in HFSVCPACK that I made using your MultiCompiler program.)

Off-topic: Do you have some links to pages with switchless installers on it? I used one list and downloaded a few installers, but I didn't bookmark it.

Sorry... I didn't see that post.

I did some quick testing on an XP box and it looks like the standard Type 2 switches are accepted so I'm using these in the new version (60510b). It should work now. At worst, you'll get a wizard...

just thought it might be worth a look ...
so we can't use ryanvm's cab for HFSLIP ...
it's fine!

7. You can slipstream codecs on 2k/xp/2k3.

would there be an update about this (especially with the new codec packs around)?
thanks!

Kiki - I'll take it you haven't tested the waters with codecs yet. The codec instructions work for 2k/xp/2k3. If there are newer [dll, ax, etc] files, it's up to you to obtain them. If there's more codecs you need, then you'll have to add codecs. I work with the set listed in my post (except the real media stuff). I have not had issues playing any types of videos (except real media stuff).

[Kiki Burgh]

go it sir ...
have actually tried it once but i wasn't so confident w/ the list of codecs i had ...
i simply followed the instructions there & downloaded the .rar files containing the codecs & the .inf ...
thanks again!

[tain]

@tommyp: I still intend to work on the codecs like we discussed. My excuse is that my free time is very limited.

Right now I am in a hotel in Ohio...had laser eye surgery done yesterday. So you can rest assured that I won't be putting out any codec packs any time soon! Reading/typing isn't easy right now...

I´ve tried to download this file http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwa...ash/swflash.cab.
But i always get the message "no connection to the server available". Is there a other location?
THX.

@ x-pert
Thank you.

[tommyp]

TC - please update your links to that macromedia stuff.

all - please stay on topic. if there are codec issues, please post on the codec thread.

No need for you to apologize and I'm sorry to sound like a butthorn. I just want to keep it clean and on track for the test releases.

[Super-Magician]

Tested 60510b.

Everything works perfectly. KB913433 installs successfully. WU does not complain.

[Camarade_Tux]

Afaik, hfslip recreates some KB updaters (something with dasetup I think). And when creating them it puts cat files into the updater even though you provided a hacked sfc file.
Could this be changed, thanks.

[Tomcat76]

If you have a modded SFC file but are still getting CAT files in the SOURCESS\I386\SVCPACK folder they can only come from these locations:

- original SOURCE
- XPize
- HFEXPERT\WIN

[Super-Magician]

Tomcat - did you get my PM?

Those cats are not in SVCPACK but in the installers inside svcpack.
A screenshot will probably be better:

@Camarade_Tux:
HFSLIP is not going to extract a Microsoft installer and compress it again just to delete the CAT files inside it.

@Super-Magician:
Yes, but hold on just a while. You'll see for yourself...
