HJW Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 enable NO-GUI boot option during setup? CMD /C BCDEDIT /SET QUICKBOOT ONin your autounattend.xml at synchronous commands or add this entry to your setupcomplete.cmd in %windir%\setup\scripts when you are using $oem$ folders.Regards,HJW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HJW Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 (edited) change tht original progressbar bootskin. AMITVista runs a digital signature check on the file with the progresbbar (NTOSKRNL/NTOSMPA), when changing bitmaps inside those files Vista will refuse to continue with its bootprocess, so you got stucked with an unbootable OS thnx for those virtual machines Idea what about a custom kernel file defined with bcdedit (like in boot.ini with XP)??HJW Edited June 27, 2007 by HJW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amit_talkin Posted August 7, 2007 Author Share Posted August 7, 2007 i got another problem,in vistax64, to replace bootskin with custom one is the same procedure as in vistax32. i mean replacing system32\en-us\winload.exe.mui and it works fine. but my problem is, that i have replace winload.exe.mui in install.wim and repacked it ( i have assured replacement by remounting install.wim and checked whether it is replaced or not ) but after installation of vista, vista replaces that file with same default one.let me explain, the default vista winload.exe.mui file size is 25 KB , now i have replaced this file in install.wim with my custom bootskin which is 4 mb in size. now i have saved install.wim. but after installation of vista, vista replaces this 4 mb file with its default 25 kb file!!! while this file isnt exists in install.wim! so i think there must be a backup file of winload.exe.mui in install.wim. and i think this file is "winload.efi.mui" i m not sure. so i m asking u guys to help me with this! how can i put my custom bootskin unattended?
