FoxMan Posted December 26, 2013 Posted December 26, 2013 ISO file size is 4 217 568 KiB x 1024 = 4 318 789 632 bytes. FAT32 maximum supported file size is 4 294 967 295 bytes, so everything is as it should be, the warning is correct, since the whole ISO file is going to be copied.You have the following options with this ISO:1) Use FAT32 and 1.0 beta versions, which do not copy the whole ISO, but support only one source of this type. If you need EFI, it should need no further modifications if source is Windows 8.X2) Use 1.0 and later versions and NTFS, multiple sources of this kind are supported, but no EFI support with NTFS, unless you load a NTFS driver, for EFI or motherboard manufacturer added NTFS EFI driver.http://www.rodsbooks.com/refind/drivers.htmlhttp://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/46981-Install-Win8-Windows-8-1-UEFI-With-a-Over-sized%28over-4GB%29-install-wimOk, thanks. Thou shalt not return the old way as an additional?
ilko_t Posted December 26, 2013 Author Posted December 26, 2013 One could always use any of the beta versions to add it the old way, I wouldn't add it as an option for now, unless there is lots of interest in such option.
FoxMan Posted December 26, 2013 Posted December 26, 2013 Ok. But I still torments the previous question. Program, as I understand it, turns the image to stick, and not at her blankly copies the image file. Then why the author evaluates the maximum size as the image, rather than contained within the image file with a maximum size, ie install.esd?

FAT32 maximum supported file size is 4 294 967 295 bytes, so everything is as it should be, the warning is correct, since the whole ISO file is going to be copied....Again, the image is copied as is, the whole ISO, it is not extracted. Have a look at the contents of <USB disk>\WINSETUP\W71\ or whatever the name of the directory is, there are boot.wim and WindowsXYZ.ISO. How do you fit larger than 4GB WindowsXYZ.ISO on FAT32?

I understand that the loader will start directly from the image. And UEFI, respectively, will be. In my case optionally use fat32?
ilko_t Posted December 27, 2013 Author Posted December 27, 2013 I don't quite understand your question, lost in translation.Vista and later setup currently works like this:BIOS/legacy mode:boot device-->MBR-->grub4dos is loaded-->bootmgr (reads BCD store)-->boot.wim -->install imdisk driver and mount the ISO file as virtual DVD-->start SetupEFI mode:FAT32 partition/efi/bootx64.efi (reads BCD store)-->boot.wim-->install imdisk driver and mount the ISO file as virtual DVD-->start SetupTypical EFI firmware supports FAT32, no NTFS.For NTFS and EFI, load a NTFS driver.Again:You have the following options with this ISO:1) Use FAT32 and 1.0 beta versions, which do not copy the whole ISO, but support only one source of this type.

ilko_t Posted December 30, 2013 Author Posted December 30, 2013 You are using the option to add PE1, XP/2003 based, whereas your source considering its name seems to be PE3, Windows 7 based. Use the Vista/7.... option and provide path to the ISO file.
damtac84 Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 this is 2 picture, what I think you can understand my trouble closely. btw I use another computer to try!!!http://i.upanh.com/rchzxghttp://i.upanh.com/rchzkr sr for this inconvenient, I can't post images >.<
ilko_t Posted December 30, 2013 Author Posted December 30, 2013 The links cannot be opened, try some other web site.

ilko_t Posted December 30, 2013 Author Posted December 30, 2013 Please post WinSetupFromUSB.log file, and use only the Vista/7... option for this source.You can upload it to http://pastebin.com/ or http://www.datafilehost.com and provide download link.

ilko_t Posted December 30, 2013 Author Posted December 30, 2013 I'll have this fixed in the next version which should be out soon, just need to accumulate more changes to release it.The problem with this source is that there is folder EFI but most likely there is no BCD file in \efi\microsoft\boot\ and program fails when trying to update it, since it's missing. I've added a few more checks which should eliminate such errors.Meanwhile, I think this source could also be added using the third option "Linux ISO/Other Grub4dos compatible ISO" if there are no files needed for the booted WinPE outside boot.wim.Thanks for reporting.

I try adding another winpe what version have file BCD in \efi\microsoft\boot\, and this works!about the third option, I am afraid that I don't have answer. by the ways, thanks for your support!
