tr4ck Posted June 22, 2004 Posted June 22, 2004 I used nlite to slipsteam sp2 and make a reduced ISO. I used vmware to test the iso. After the files are copied and the system first reboots to gui mode, I get this blue screen error "Process1_initialization_failed." Does anyone know what this is?
Drewdatrip Posted June 22, 2004 Posted June 22, 2004 Odd...Only time i have seen that is issues relating to hardware such as a double slave or master setting on 2 ide devices on the same channel....Besiodes that i have never seen that error.I would consider leavinf the master drivers and critical files alone for a test the removing to see difference|Drew|
tr4ck Posted June 23, 2004 Author Posted June 23, 2004 It seems it only happens with sp2, I tried it with sp1 and it works fine. I noticed that the xp folder with sp2 had these two files win51ip.sp1 and win51ip.sp2, could this be a problem?
[BM]Crusher Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 those files are supposed to be there...i used nLite to slipstream RC1 and then later on RC2 onto my personal unattend CD and I have not had a single problem with either RC1 or RC2 they are great!
Denney Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 Problems like those can be caused by slipstreaming SP2 into a SP1 CD... you should never slipstream a SP into a CD with another SP. Always start using the original CD.Try slipstreaming SP2 into a Vanilla (no SP) Windows XP CD. The win51ip.sp1 file on your CD tells me that the CD you slipstreamed into was a SP1 CD.
tr4ck Posted June 23, 2004 Author Posted June 23, 2004 Yea thats what I did. I'll try it with sp2 alone.
[BM]Crusher Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 @raverod - what does it matter? you can slipstream sp2 over the top of sp1 it makes no differencei slipstreamed my disk to sp1 6 months ago... last month i slipstreamed sp2 rc1 into the same disk... this month i slipstreamed sp2 rc2 into the same disk... it works perfectly...what logic dictates that you cannot slipstream sp2 into an sp1 cd?what about all those people that have actual SP1 or SP1a windows cds? does that mean they can never slipstream sp2 because they don't have a super old cd? that just doesn't make any sense
Astalavista Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 I am going to slipstream sp2 to my sp1.what is the instruction on how to do it.thanks
[BM]Crusher Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 same as always...you extract the xpSP2.exe file to a folder, then inside that folder you will findI386\Update\Update.exerun that with the following switch:Update.exe -S:C:\Share (where C:\Share is the directory containing your CD source)or just use nLite to slipstream it
Denney Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 @[bM]Crusher: After making that CD did you then use nLite or some other reduction tool?I didn't mean to say that you couldn't. I meant that if your going to use reduction tools etc. you should start with a clean slate.The reason I say this is that in the official beta for SP2, Microsoft highly recommends, if slipstreaming, to slipstream using an original Windows XP CD to prevent any errors/compatibility problems from occuring.
Astalavista Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 what about all the patchs and fixes in the i386. do i remove them?
Astalavista Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 ie patches and hotfixes.you know all those files from update folder of i386
Astalavista Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 ok did the slipstream I got an error saying that my ntfs.exe is missing or corrupt. what gives?
Alanoll Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 i believe the file is ntfs.sys I would recommend starting from scratch and not undoing all the damage you've done to your Unattended CD, and start over. It's ALOT easier to troubleshoot.
