vLite on Windows XP x64 possible bug

[Wine_Spirit]

Hi,

so I was trying to make a vLited Vista x64, but when I get the usual Dependencies window at the first start, the File System File Manager won't install and tells me to:

"Download and Install Update Rollup 1 for Windows 2000 and restart your computer and vLite"

Uh OK... too bad I'm running Windows XP x64 eheh and the File System Filter should already be installed. So, basically that prevents me from using vLite. WIM filter is greyed out.

Any way to circumvent that error?

Yeah fixed that bogus Win2k warning in the next version but Filter Manager detection should not be broken.

Check with the Explorer your c:\windows\system32\drivers\fltMgr.sys, is it there?

Nope, it isn't there. I must have removed the component by mistake cause I never do.

Thanks for telling me the file, gonna grab it from the CD if possible.

Wanted to try Server 2008 but I see vLite is not fully compatible yet, any idea when a compatible version will be out? (just so to know so maybe I wait for it if it's not long thanks)

Well it's not just that file.

Try installing a hotfix related to filter manager for your Windows, more info in this topic:

No plans for component removal for 2k8.

ah wth i still get the error. The patch doesn't work with SP2, tried installing the infs manually but it doesn't seem to work either
