Thank you once again for explaining this to me. I appreciate it greatly.

Thank you for the quick and helpful reply. There are five other updates that HFSLIPFC list that isn't on your page: KB975558, KB2909212, KB961503, KB982316 and KB2264107?

Thank you for the quick reply and helpful responce. I have a follow up. HFSLIPFC says I should have KB969878, but your website says nothing about it. So what's the story on that? FYI, I am slipstreaming with a WinXP SP3 CD, without updating IE and such (IE6, WMP9, RDC6 (with RDP 6.1) and MSXML3&6). If that added info modifies your previous response, please let me know. Thanks again.

When I run HFSLIPFC I get the following: obsolete: HF\WindowsXP-KB956744-x86-ENU.exe (MS09-044: Remote Desktop Connection, replaced by KB2483618). But according to http://xdot.tk/ the WindowsXP-KB956744-x86-ENU.exe file is the most up to date, and it says nothing about KB2483618. So which is correct? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the response. Please forgive me, but I don't understand how those links help with the problem. I also searched the registry for "21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D" as you sugested, but I fail to see what I'm supposed to do with those results. Again, creating a folder and naming it "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D} creates a "Control Panel" folder. It does this in Win2K with and without FDV's fileset, and it does this in XP without FDV's fileset. But for some reason it doesn't work when using FDV's fileset. I get a functional folder, but its called "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" instead of just "Control Panel" So I'm wondering what needs to be changed in the FDV fileset to fix this error.

Anyone have any idea?

OK, I will submit it here as directed. To use this code you need to do the following: 1: Download the program called Swiss File Knife. Rename the .EXE to SFK.EXE and put it in the HFTOOLS directory. 2: Create a folder in your HFSLIP folder called "BrakSlip" (named after my favorite cartoon character, Brak). 3: Create a new file called "BrakBoot.cmd" and put the following code in it. ECHO. BRAKBOOT - Processing Boot FolderREM This function will modify the TXTSETUP.SIF,SETUPLDR.BIN and BOOT.BIN files, and copy the needed files into the main directory.REM This is done in order to

CALL :TIMECALC&PAUSE&EXITAnd that's it. Now to use it either put the value for MBOOTPATH in the HFANSWER.INI file, or type it when prompted by the main script. And again, only give the 4-character folder name - no slashes despite the fact that the main script directs you to do so.

How does one submit code to the creator of HFSLIP? The code I written, praise God, is working awesomely!!! The script requires you download a program called Swiss File Knife. Rename the .EXE to SFK.EXE and put it in the HFTOOLS directory. Here is how it basically works: 1: You assign a directory name that you want all the OS setup files in (must be 4 characters) in the MBOOTPATH variable. Unlike the instructions given in the original script you don't include any backslashes - just the 4 characters. 2:The script, after the slip-streaming is done, then modifies the TXTSETUP.SIF and SETUPLDR.BIN files, creates your MBOOTPATH directory, copies the needed files into the root of your MBOOTPATH directory as well as of course the I386 directory itself. 3:You move your MBOOTPATH directory and the WIN51* files from the SOURCESS directory into the root directory of your multiboot/AIO. 4: You move the (4 character directory name).BIN file from the SOURCESS directory into what ever directory your multiboot/AIO method dictates you put your BOOT.BIN files at, and configure your multiboot/AIO method to use the file as the method dictates. And that's it! No need to manually hex-edit any files. I put all the code into a separate CMD file, which is called from the main HFSLIP***.CMD. Thanks in advance.

FDV: I am running into a problem (I'm using version 4 of your fileset). When I create an Control Panel folder, instead of it creating a folder called "Control Panel" and it containing the contents of the Control Panel it instead creates a folder called "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" which has the contents of the Control Panel in it. To create the folder I am using a CMD script with the following command: md "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Start Menu\Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" If I do this with out your fileset it works as it should. If I do this in 2K with your fileset it works as it should. I as able to find version 3b2 of your fileset. I tried it and it still has the same issue. I would be more than happy to help you in debugging this. Thanks in advance.

@submix8c What exactly does "touchy soul" mean? In my last post I was just trying to make myself clear. I find it frustrating at times on forums when a person asks "how much does an apple cost" and the replies tell them the price of oranges - or even worse when a replies consists of pages of reasons why they should buy oranges instead of apples! I am curious why you say not to use FDV's fileset, as I have been using it with great success for years (maybe about 10 years).

I use XVI32 to manually modify binary files. I ended up downloading a program called Swiss File Knife, which has many command line tools - including split and join. Again, thanks for all the replies!

Also, one problem with the xdot site is that it lists all the updates as "High Priority". It would be nice to have them listed as "Critical", "Important", "Optional", etc.

Thanks for all the replies. Just in case it wasn't clear by this being posted in a HFSLIP forum, my question is in context of using HFSLIP. I was hoping someone had an updated list, as of the EOL of WinXP, of all the updates for WinXP for HFSLIP. After looking at the links given I notice a lot of differences in the lists, plus a lot of "this update supersedes that update" (causing one to have to do a game of connect the dots to figure out which update file to use). And since a lot of the info is old (many of the pages can only be read via the Wayback Machine) its had to trust them. So I would love a singular current list of all the current updates for WinXP to create what one could call "SP4" - but not an actual service pack of course - which can be slipstreamed via HFSLIP. So far the http://xdot.tk/ site seems the most promising - I just got to figure out what to adjust for not updating IE or WMP - and of course, as suggested, downloading from MS the files that the xdot.tk program converts into cabs. I just want to make sure I got things correct. I STRONGLY believe that MS should have released a final SP for their OSes on the date of its EOL. So they should have released a SP5 for Win2K and a SP4 for WinXP.

Thanks for the translation. lol I was clearly not understanding submix8c. I ended up finding on my drive a bunch of HFCLEANUP files I had downloaded awhile back called: hfcleanup.zip hfcleanup_2kextra.zip hfcleanup_dialup_reducer.zip hfcleanup_msoffice_reducer.zip hfcleanup_network_driver_reducer.zip hfcleanup_qlaunch_fix.zip They used to be on FDV's site (http://web.archive.org/web/20071212020917/http://www.vorck.com/hfexpert.html).

I want to thank everyone for their involvement with this thread. Well I ended up modifying the hfslip script file to add the functionality that I want. The hardest part was figuring out how to modify the TXTSETUP.SIF file. Now I'm trying to figure out how to modify the SETUPLDR.BIN which is a quite bit more tricky. lol I'm trying to stick with CMD native commands without having to resort to using an .exe file to add to the HFTOOLS directory. If anyone has any suggestions on doing such would be greatly appreciated.

I want to thank everyone for their replies and help thus far! First let me say that my question was how to do something in HFSLIP. I don't want to use nLite or any other solution. I like HFSLIP, have been using it for many years, and wish to stay with it. So please in the future when I post HFSLIP questions on a HFSLIP forum, please keep the solutions HFSLIP based. The reason for my question is due to using FDV's fileset which instructs putting modified versions of some files (TXTSETUP.SIF, LAYOUT.INF) into the SOURCE folder. I want to keep the SOURCE folder pristine, so was hoping for an easy solution (outside of editing the CMD code to do so, which I am tempted to do). Again, thanks for all the replies!

Thank you for all the replies. I appreicate the time and effort! In HFSLIP is says: ECHO If you are making a multiboot CD, what folder/pathname will this OS reside in ECHO on your new CD? ECHO. ECHO The format to enter is: ^<subfolder^>\ ECHO. ECHO Example: Pro\ ECHO. ECHO Note: You must type in the \ at the end if you enter a multiboot path. ECHO. ECHO. ECHO If you are not going to make a multiboot CD, simply press Enter to bypass the ECHO multiboot installation CD mode. ECHO. ECHO. SETLOCAL DISABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION ECHO IMPORTANT! SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION ECHO It is not possible to use the new source made by HFSLIP both in the context ECHO of a CD with a single OS and in the context of a multiboot CD. It's either ECHO one or the other. However the code does nothing with this variable: IF DEFINED MBOOTPATH GOTO :DELCATS (which it goes to anyways) SET /P MBOOTPATH= (this is where it gets user input) IF NOT DEFINED MBOOTPATH SET MBOOTPATH=Default (gives it a value if it doesn't have one already) ECHO>>HFSLIP.LOG CD Install Path - %MBOOTPATH%&ECHO/>>HFSLIP.LOG (inserts the value to the LOG file) And that is it!! So I expected it to modify the files so that it installs from an alternative folder than ROOT:\I386 It should at least, in my opinion, modify the SetupSOurcePath value in TXTSETUP.SIF I think I am just going to add code to my copy of the script to give it this functionality. I am using CDRPACK v1.3 by Bart Lagerweij to create my multiboot ISO, as I have for many years. I don't make an ISO with HFSLIP, I just take the I386 folder in the SOURCESS folder and put it in my folder that's CDPACK is using to build my ISO. Of cource hex editing the .BIN files as needed.

Ok, after reading those pages in regards to XP it looks that the "SetupSourcePath" in the txtsetup.sif just needs to be modifed. So that brings me back to my original question: what the heck is the MBOOTPATH variable for in HFSLIP? The description of it sounds like it would modify the txtsetup.sif in the way I just mentioned above - but it doesn't. After scanning the HFSLIP file I see that the only thing that is done with the variable is that it is written to the HFSLIP.LOG file! So where there plans to actually do something with it, but it never got done?

I have a question in regards to the xdot.tk site. One of the first critial updates listed on mimo's old page (thank you wayback machine) was WindowsXP-KB941569-x86-ENU.EXE. xdot.tk's page doesn't have it - nor does it even mention it as obsolete. So what's the story on that?

I had tried using the files provided by the xdot.tk site. The app they provide to download all the files is freaking awesome. However the problem I am having is that if I put them all in my HF folder, it causes a failed installation. In this failed installation after going through the text setup sucessfully, when it tries going into the gui setup it kicks up a quick error message about the drive and reboots. It does this loop until I stop it. This put me in a wild goose chase trying to slipstream SATA drivers - as I finally discovered that if I remove all the files from the HF folder that I am able to create sucessfull installs. So instead of creating potentially 140+ set installs trying to find the offending file, I was hoping someone here could guide me as to which updates are absolutly needed so I can try that collection first to see if I can get a functional install.

Why do you, submix8c, insist I put all my questions into one thread when they are distinct questions that are independent from each other??? I mean, wanting cleanup files is completely different from multibooting which is completely different from wanting to create an "SP4" of XP. It would be stupid and ineffective, in my opinion, to ask all those questions in one thread - and also very confusing for people reading and responding to it. So I will keep them separated, unless of course instructed to do otherwise by an admin.

I hope someone could explain this feature. For my Win2k I have been sucessful for many years making a multiboot with just modifying in a hex editor the SETUPLDR.BIN and BOOT.BIN by modifying the "I386" with any other 4 charactor folder name. With XP, however, the text setup portion works perfectly, but sadly during the gui setup it constatnly asks me for the location of the source, with it assuming the folder is called I386.

What do you mean by "integrating updates into your source folder"? I thought the intergration occurs in the SOURCESS folder - the only exception being service packs (unless one uses the backup=1 in the HFANSWERS.INI).

Now that WinXP is EOS, it makes sense to create an "SP4 CD". My question is: What update files should I include? I have read a lot of posts on this forum discussing various update files not working and such. So what update files should I include in my "final WinXP CD". Also I want to use FDV's file set to remove IE. From what I read from him its best to not slipstream IE8, but rather just keep IE6, and slipstream the update files for IE6. Any help and guidance would be apprediated. Thanks in advance.

When HFSLIP is running it asks if this is going to be a multiboot CD, and if so what is the folder name. The resulting product is the same regardless what I select. I searched the SOURCESS folder for anything that had the folder name I chose in it, and nothing came up. So what does this option do exactly? And how does it help in making a multiboot CD? Thanks in advance.
