fbwf (File Based Write Filter Driver) in your PE


scp

Recommended Posts

I finally got the fbwf (File Based Write Filter Driver) working on a current Windows PE build. If you used that, you get write access "on" your CD/DVD, the status of drive X: shows 32 MB of free space and you can create/modify files and folders!

In the attached zip file is a plugin for Bart PE and a fbwfmanual.txt which contains the required TXTSETUP.SIF end registry entrys for use in original WinPE.

Tested on Bart PE 3.1.3, WinXP SP2 source with ramdisk.sys from Server 2003 SP1.

Required files are from Longhorn/Vista Beta 1 Build 5112, you find them in the boot.wim image as described in an earlier post from me.

PS: wimfsf.sys will also be copied but currently not used, because its not working and not required for fbwf.

EDIT:

Modified Bart PE plugin inf for SAC

fbwf.zip

OK. Vista RC1 is now a public download...

As suggested, I copied the FBWF files after the 1st phase of Vista setup (from unloaded boot image).

I cannot locate a fltmgr.inf in Vista Setup, or VistaPE.

Using one from pre Vista builds results in BSOD.

Did I miss something somewhere?

I searched my system and various distributions for "fltmgr", with no luck.

Any help would be nice, thx.
