[Microsoft .net Framwork 2.0 for Winpe boot.wim]

If you know what to do and how to do it, it's relatively simple.

Yesterday, I completed the integration of the Microsoft .NET Framework v2.0.50727 in Windows PE 2.0. You can find the result on my blog. In the next couple of days/weeks (depending on how busy I am in real life), I will write a guide how to do it.

Are you working on your WIM Dumper for the 405x versions

LH4053 had .net framework in a .cab file, i assume you just edited an inf file to install it, right?

@scp: Yes I'm working on it but it will take a while. And thank you for your bug report

@gosh: The files in that cab file are just some of them, not all. So it's a little bit useless for me. And No, I didn't installed them from the INF files (which actually also doesn't exist). But I took the files and the registry entries from the .NET Framework MSI file, added them to the iso and the registry hive files, made a new iso and loaded it.

Hello everyone,

First I'll introduce myself a bit. I'm ZoRoNaX, a developer/reverse engineerer/beta collector and I'm active on some boards. Some things in the short list of things I've reverse engineerd are the Windows Longhorn Install.WIM file and the MSN Messenger P2P Protocol.

That's all about me, now we get back to the topic.

I managed to install the Microsoft .NET Framework in Windows PE ripped from the Windows Longhorn 4053 Setup. I took some screenshots, which I will describe later.

Screenshot #1:

The boot screen, I hacked the logo a bit, because I didn't liked the original Windows Logo on it.

Screenshot #2:

Here we see the .NET Framework folder, and as you can see the version of the .NET Framework is v1.1.4322.

Screenshot #3:

And finally we see an .NET application written in C# which displays the Operating System Information and the time. We also see the Windows Version in it, which is 6.0.4053.0.

The source code for the C# Operating System Information application can be downloaded here.

The only thing which isn't working right (yet) is that the compiler can't access some files yet if you compile source code, but I'll post a guide on how to do this soon, I'm a busy man

That's all, have fun!

PS: I'm not the one where CuBie was talking about who managed to install the Microsoft .NET Framework.
