Guide: How To Bulid up ur Server/Vista properly!

[using vlite and waik]

idea of this Guide:

installation of new updates and packages after installation of vista or server creating "checkpoint" if the user wanna uninstall same update he could but this make winsxs bigger and bigger

backup files dll more files will be saved

so this way u could save space and maybe have the os more stable

1. copy ur original disk to hard

2. use vlite to SS sp1 [only if use this on vista sp0 / server have already sp1 so skip that ]

3. use waik to pre-install updates and packages or feathers with perm type [ reinstall sp1 with waik after but now u do the perm type its should clean the old files from sp0]

[example:]

<package action="configure" permanence="permanent">

list of updates to windows server 2008 32/64bit:

hey nuhi i might have some idea why its happening maybe after using vlite, Components that didnt seleted[because they not appear ] has been deleted using vlite

That is a bloody good point aviv00, or at least a good suggestion, since vLite is only in beta, maybe Nuhi has not yet coded this into it, but (and I am no C# coder) I am sure if theres no component there to select, vLite cannot possibly remove things like that (Aero, WMP11).

They are not deleted, it's just while Server is going through other component data it tries to read the removed ones and stops there.

It's just a matter of finding what to clean, gonna do it for the 1.1 final.

The final vLite will probably be made before Server 2008 is even officially released.

Nuhi you do SO much man. Server 2008 isn't even out for months yet and you're talking about vLite final. :blink:
