I just read your post and it's very close to what I want to say, 'cause I found the way to have success with x64 LIP integration and decided to share it. I did the integration and vliting in two phases: I first integrated Ukrainian LIP only, applied changes to the image, closed vLite and then did tweaks and other staff to that already modified, i.e. vLited, image. Now I have much smaller distribution of Vista Ultimate x64 with Ukrainian interface integrated.
