Files used during text mode setup?

[-.-PhanTom-.-]

Can someone please tell me all the files that are used during text mode setup?

And if possible, how/where to disable the "Press F6...." and "Press F2..." wait/pause during textmode setup?

This is from the MSFN Multi-Boot DVD Guide:

Creating the Boot Folder

Thanks to gosh from the MSFN forums, I have discovered a much better way to obtain the boot files. While this method is a slight pain, it ensures that everyone has the proper boot files for their DVD. Go to Start -> Run and type or paste the following command with the correct drive letter of course:

D:\AIO-DVD\SETUP\XP\Professional\i386\winnt32.exe /noreboot

Windows XP setup should come up. Choose "New Installation" and go through the options as usual. Do NOT download updated setup files. At the "Setup Options" screen, click on "Advanced Options" and make sure "copy all installation files from the CD" is checked. If it is grayed out don't worry about it.

Setup should create 2 folders in the root of your main drive. They will be hidden so make sure "Show hidden files and folders" is enabled.

$WIN_NT$.~BT - the boot folder

$WIN_NT$.~LS - installation files folder

Delete $WIN_NT$.~LS that was just created. All we're concerned with is the boot folder.

Rename $WIN_NT$.~BT to PRO1 and move the entire folder into the AIO-DVD folder.

eg. - D:\AIO-DVD\PRO1\

Now in the PRO1 folder delete the following files:

BOOTSECT.DAT

migrate.inf

winnt.sif

IMPORTANT: Now there's just one last thing we have to do. When we ran setup like we just did, it expects us to be installing a new operating system the next time we reboot, so setup adds an extra boot option in the boot.ini file and changes the default boot choice to it. If you followed the instructions in "Getting Started", you should have made a copy of your boot.ini file. Take this copy, and copy it back over the boot.ini file in the C:\. Don't get rid of your original boot.ini, you will need it again if you plan on using other portions of this guide to add more operating systems.

If you don't have a backup of your boot.ini file, you can edit it yourself. This is what it normally looks like if you have XP Pro installed on the first or only partition of your hard drive:

[boot loader]timeout=30

default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS

[operating systems]

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect

By following that, you should get two folders...one of these contains all the files that are used during text setup mode. I don't think you can edit out the parts you want, but if you can those files should be in the folder. Good luck!

Firs one (the black screen) is stored in bootfix.bin. Edit with cygnus hex editor or something like that. And try to keep length of the black screen inscription.
