Cosmin3 Posted September 8, 2010 Author Share Posted September 8, 2010 Thank you.I downloaded the program, I did what you said and I got a cab file.In ini file:[General]builddate=description=European font updatelanguage=English (United States)title=European font updateversion=6.00.2800.1168website=[EditFile]I386\SVCPACK.INF,SetupHotfixesToRun,AddProgram[AddProgram]EUupdate.exe /QThe problem is this:Same thing is asking if it's installed normally.Maybe there is a parameter to suppress this message but I don't know where to search..."EUupdate.exe /?" is showing me 4 of them but I don't see any for this...

Guest Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 I don't know why it would be asking for a reboot since I tested it on my live system and it just installs silently.Perhaps run it from GuiRunOnce along with your reg reg tweaks. Place it in the $OEM$ temp folder you are already using and add this command: WHATEVER_THE_PATH_IS_HERE\Temp\EUupdate.exe /Q.The nLite add-ons run at T-13 minutes. GuiRunOnce runs right before first log on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geej Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Hi Cosmin3Try this. Install EUupdate.exe manually (On VM or actual host PC), allow reboot.After reboot, go to C:\WINDOWS\Fontsand copy off these files to other locations: arial.ttfarialbd.ttfarialbi.ttfariali.ttftimes.ttftimesbd.ttftimesbi.ttftimesi.ttftrebuc.ttftrebucbd.ttftrebucbi.ttftrebucit.ttfverdana.ttfverdanab.ttfverdanai.ttfverdanaz.ttfThen SFX it for T13 installation. Fonts should be registered since it is just an update of the same font name.Check that it exist: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the font files I've made a Winrar sfx archive. The comment looks like this:;The comment below contains SFX script commandsPath=%windir%\FontsSavePathSilent=1Overwrite=1But the problem is this:I press Ok and I get this:I guess those font files can't be overwritten not even during setup.I have another idea: how about compressing those files as *.tt_ and overwritting original font files from I386 folder? With a *.cmd I can do this before the last stage in nlite (making Iso).Is it ok..?If it is, with what program I can compress in *.tt_? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Cabtool. I cant live without it! http://www.mediafire.com/?iy2mzndytgzThat's the installer and I'm not sure what it does. I just have the single executable in a folder and then have a shortcut in my sendto folder. It will make the .dl_, tt_, etc (I believe they are still called cab compressed files) if you highlight a single file. If you take a folder and sendto it will make a .cab file out of it.The reason I was saying to run it from GuiRunOnce was that maybe it wouldn't ask for a reboot then. Did you try the font pack on a already setup system? Did it ask for a reboot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you try the font pack on a already setup system? Did it ask for a reboot?On a already setup system I get the reboot question even if I try with /q parameter. If the update is already installed it doesn't ask (totally silent/quiet).Later later edit: the problem searching a good cab tool is solved. I remembered that years ago I found in Windows folder a tool to compress. I look for it and found it: %windir%\system32\makecab.exe.Seems to compress fine...

Guest Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 (edited) Holy crap! That's a different one than the one on my system. Try this (the executable only) http://www.mediafire.com/?cz7k3ebp74wh4p2Edit: No, wait. It is the same one (once installed). The installer is what shows all those infections. I tested it in a sandbox and see no unusual activity so I'm pretty sure they are all false positives.They even have it here: http://www.wincert.net/forum/index.php?/topic/2156-addon-cabtool-v18-in-sendto-style-build2/ It's the same version (1.8) but it has an actual icon.

I remembered that years ago I found in Windows folder a tool to compress. I look for it and found it: %windir%\system32\makecab.exe.Seems to compress fine...Yeah but it's not as good as this thing. You cant use the sendto function. Cabtool compresses AND decompresses. Does folders. I cant live without it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For makecab you can create a SendTo shortcut.But you're right, cab tool is a good choice for those who frequently compress/decompress.I have tested this method of integrating the fonts update and it works fine.I have a few more questions but I think I'll wait a few days Edited September 9, 2010 by Cosmin3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmin3 Posted September 12, 2010 Author Share Posted September 12, 2010 (edited) 1. Is there any way to disable showing and waiting for these 2:"Press F6 if you need to install a third party SCSI or RAID driver""Press F2 to run Automated System Recovery (ASR)..."I never used them and I will never use them.2. I don't want to stop Imapi service but I want "Enable CD Recording on this drive" unchecked. Sometimes I install with CD Writer and/or DVD Writer connected (to power source and motherboard), sometimes disconnected (I install from USB stick).If I use this:[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CD Burning]"DriveIndex"=-[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CD Burning]"CD Recorder Drive"=""then will it work in both situations..? I mean if a drive was connected during install, it will be unchecked; if I connect the drive later then it should stay unchecked.3. In Tweaks >> General >> Internet Explorer I checked "Disable Outlook Express link Creation" but I still see the link in Start Menu after installation.Is it a bug..? And is there another way to disable the creation of this link..?4. I know how to set in nlite user variables Temp and TMP but how do I change for system variables..?5. How do I change My Documents path..?6. How do I deactivate the creation of "Programs >> Remote Assistance" and "Programs >> Accessories >> Remote Desktop Connection" links?Later edit:7. Is there any way to load that tweaks reg file so Windows wouldn't have to be restarted? Most of those settings need restart if the reg file is loaded during startup...

Guest Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 1. No2. Don't know3. You could edit winnt.sif before ISO creation by adding this....[Components]OEAccess=off4. Don't know what you mean by system variables5. With a reg fileExample:Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders]"Personal"="D:\\MyDocs"[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders]"Personal"="D:\\MyDocs"6. You could delete the shortcut file with a batch file called from GuiRunOnce7. Let me think about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmin3 Posted September 13, 2010 Author Share Posted September 13, 2010 (edited) Thank you.3. Ok, I'll do that until the setting from nlite will work properly.4.6. Yes I could. I thought there is a setting in nlite for this (or in winnt.sif), that's why I asked.7. I found a solution: with reg2exe I make a exe, from exe I make an addon and I use the addon in nlite. I already tested and it works fine Later edit: Oh, and I found the setup log for IE8. It was in %windir%\ie8_main.log. I attached it to this post.ie8_main.zip Edited September 13, 2010 by Cosmin3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 4 You could use the set command from GuiRunOnce. Type set /? at a command prompt for help. Or, you could do via registry....

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\EnvironmentOk.I've added the setup log of IE8 to the previous post because some time ago you mentioned it. Yes, now I slipstream IE8 but I still want to know what is wrong in case that I use an installation without. You see, I made 3 installation cds. One with IE8 included and 2 without.Could you please have a look at that log..?Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 3 CDs? Are they for personal use? nLite is only for personal use.Regarding the log file, I'm no expert in reading them but is that from a failed install? I don't see any massive failure there.
