You may have issues with other installation types.You use hotfixes downloaded from the Microsoft servers and not from someone else.Caution is advised if you run nLite on the SOURCESS folder (see this link for more information). What is needed: a drive with a few gigs of free space and the ability to read.Error Reporting.See http://hfslip.org/support.htmlPlease report any issues with languages too and include the output from HFNETCHK if applicable.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Thanks to everyone for helping out with the script!!!

pr0nstar Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 The HFSLIP download link points to the FDV IE removal files (sp5files.zip) and not the hfslip.zip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomcat76 Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 Why is WGA (LegitCheck) integration disabled? Are there "licensing issues"?I've embedded the new WGA version just the other day into Windows XP using HFSLIP 51115 and it's working fine (except that I need to enable the addon in MSIE). So what's the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash&Burn Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 It's discussed over here: WGA is out in updated version 1.4.389.0.And they all seem to think that for it to work, one of the files itself has to be hacked and hexeditted.Personally I've never slipped/or embedded it so I don't know.

Tomcat76 Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I've been integrating LegitCheck into the Windows 2000 test installs for a few weeks now and never had a problem until a couple of days ago when I was presented a WGA download dialog on MS Downloads.Two days ago, I read that thread you linked to so I downloaded the new version and integrated it into the test install of Windows XP. I've made two so far (the latter contains two more hotfixes) and it's working on both except that the WGA control is disabled by MSIE. Since I've never integrated this into Windows XP before (only Windows 2000), I don't know if this is expected behavior. Either way, it's easily fixed by removing a REG key as pointed out in one of the posts on that thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedro80 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Hello! I ran into your slipstreamer couple days ago, and I got to hand it to you: great work Nevertheless, I think I may have discovered a flaw (not sure if it is or if you deliberately did this). I'm slipstreaming W2k3 Sp1 with all post Sp1 fixes. What I discovered is this: after "merging" the sp1.cab into driver.cab, the script modifies DRVINDEX.INF and TXTSETUP.SIF. The problem is that in my W2k3 folder I have a DOSNET.INF file which also has references to Sp1.cab.. This generates an error during installation reminding me that Sp1.cab can't be found. I've been able to fix this by manually editing the DOSNET.INF file, just removing the line which refers to Sp1.cab. I'm not sure if my case is a special case or if DOSNET.INF normally resides in the W2k3 installation path (as I'm not very experienced in these slipstreaming processes)My suggestion (if fix is needed), insert this in the CABCOMPACT-section, before line 2044:IF EXIST SOURCESS\I386\DOSNET.INF (ECHO Updating DOSNET.INFFINDSTR /V /I "SP1.CAB SP2.CAB SP3.CAB SP4.CAB SP5.CAB" SOURCESS\I386\DOSNET.INF >WORK\DOSNET.INFDEL /F /Q SOURCESS\I386\DOSNET.INFXCOPY WORK\DOSNET.INF SOURCESS\I386)attached my ERROR_REPORT.TXT for reference (don't think it'll help in this matter though), keep up the good work ERROR_REPORT.TXT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJARRRPCGP Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Welp, the Windows 2000 Pro with the newest fileset from FDV, HFSLIP and the CD burn was successful. I was worried that I wasn't gonna make the CD right. Appears that the quick launch feature is back with this one. This was with an LG CD-RW drive and a Sony 700MB and 80 minute CD-R. I decided to burn it at 40x, because I was worried about the CD being corrupted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
