weaz1dls Posted May 8, 2005 Posted May 8, 2005 hi all anyone else interested in what is going on under the hood of the wim files. At first glance via hex editor I noticed it referenced an internal name of botwim.sys. Anyway if I am out of line here I apaologize if not perhaps this could be a place to share findings relating to wim files.edit...Sorry actually a hex edit of the file "fs_ext.sys" in the boot folder of the lh5048 iso showed reference to the internal file name botwim.sys. Further, none of the search engines will regurgitate any info in relation to such a file. Hmm?
weaz1dls Posted May 8, 2005 Author Posted May 8, 2005 Ok so the install.wim gets copied to the target drive in a folder named sources, in the $windows.~LT file. It is also referenced in the setupinf file in the panther folder as the source during setup. Onlinedeploy.cmd...??? During setup the logged on user is "winkey + L" "SYSTEM"
getwired Posted May 8, 2005 Posted May 8, 2005 it's bootwim.sysGoogle searches will turn up little, since the WIM infrastructure isn't documented (nor is the ability to boot from them) - yet.
weaz1dls Posted May 8, 2005 Author Posted May 8, 2005 .I.n.t.e.r.n.a.l.N.a.m.e...b.o.o.t.w.i.m...s.y.s...You are so very correct. Pardon my carelessness.
