Thank you Delprat! 1) I see BartPE is well documented, powerfull and i use it too. But if you also use windows 2000 you have a problem. 2) Sorry, same problem. For windows 2000 i can`t find a download for SP4. Yes it asks for an "additional mass storage floppy disk", it starts the normal w2k setup. The question is: if you integrate some mass storage drivers in i386 with apps like nlite, txtsetup.sif will be manipulated, but is it consistent with bootdisks one? I remember there was a batchfile to do this job on the internet, but can`t find it anymore. 3) I know, i know many questions about windows 2000 in the XP-Thread. Please don`t `kill`me! I think the solving technique is the same.

1) I`m afraid you`re right Delprat. It seems to be a dead end. So far i know the only difference between recovery console and bluecon is a non microsoft smss.exe in the system32 folder and the extra O&O tools there. I assume this smss.exe loads into `bluecon`but i don´t understand the process behind. 2) OK, recovery console is updated. But what about the bootdisks ? Especially if i slipstreamed the servicepack and integrated some extra raiddrivers into i386. The problem is to be sure that txtsetup.sif uses correct references between raiddrivers and sourcedisknumbers.

Hi, is there a way to Customize Recovery Console with external Tools like OO Bluecon does? So for instance to start a own commandline util from within the recovery console. Second Question: how to update the Recovery console and bootdisks with a servicepack?
