GreenMachine Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 @baliktad: I like the prudent approach: CYA. I'm sure it will work great for me.I don't get it about JavaVM. I liked your post about combining the versions. (Being the way I am, I won't try it 'til I write a script to do it for me.) Is this the result of that write-up? Not hex-modified, but repackaged?I looked at the WinPE post: looks like you just boot WinPE and call WINNT.EXE. Just the same as you could do from DOS (in about 10X the time...). Did I understand correctly that you use Bart's version?Glad to have you aboard. My tip for you: Click on the word Posted: just above, in this post's header!

baliktad Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 I guess I was a little unclear. My unattended installation script uses only original binaries from Microsoft. The line..\Q816093\msjavwu.exe /c:"javatrig.exe /exe_install /l /q" /q:a /r:nrefers to the msjavwu.exe I downloaded from the Windows Update catalog. It's the 3810 "upgrade only" patch. Since I slipstream SP1 (not SP1a), I already have the JVM and hence no need for any funny business. We just patch and move on. (Side note: When SP2 comes out, since I doubt it will have the JVM, I will probably have to resort to installing my Franken-patch on SP2 slipstream installs.)As a completely separate issue, I also did the combined JVM installer thing since I frequently run across users who do not have the current build (or have no JVM) for one reason or another. I wanted to come up with a solution that I could apply to any workstation, regardless of OS or service pack level, or any stupid licensing battles Microsoft and Sun are having this week. Hence the writeup.As far as WinPE installation goes: I am calling winnt32.exe, which (surprisingly!) is the 32-bit version of the Windows setup that you would normally call from within Windows to initiate a new or upgrade install. Dos boot disks can only call winnt.exe, the slow, deprecated, old 16-bit installer. I actually use a "real" version of WinPE 1.2 built from the Windows Server 2003 OPK. Bart's PE Builder, however, is phenomenal, produces basically the same thing and is infinitely extensible. You should have no problem starting setup from a PE Builder WinPE disk.Thanks for the "posted" tip, I'll keep that in mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ratts Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 i slipstreamed sp1a into windows disc and after installing windows @ wu site it says i need to install the vm update.....according to your suggestions you say not nesc. to download.....hmmm.....microsoft must have given me sp1 instead........just downloaded it a week ago........anyhow thanx for links to updates If you got it last week, then its SP1a, which removes JavaVM. There was a thread I saw this week which showed how to get the full 3809 build and 3810 update put together in one package. oops my bad.....a**-backwards i was thanx for clarification......

gosh Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 baliktad:I'm glad there's another winpe fan on this forum. I agree with you bart's pe builder is very useful, a great resource to use. What experience do you have with winpe? I've used winpe for awhile. First as a recovery means, lately as a way to install win2k and xp. One of my goals is to add features to winpe like nero (bart beat me to it), and recovery tools like r-studio. I've also noticed that michael k yeung and bart use a documents and settings folder for winpe. Do u know how they use this folder to customize the desktop? Please share any ideas you have in the winpe forum.-gosh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marztabator Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 Looks like KB824141 and KB828035 both got updated.KB824141 - http://www.<<spam>>.net/commen...1&category=mainKB828035 - http://www.<<spam>>.net/commen...0&category=mainThought I'd help by reminding y'all.

baliktad Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 Looks like KB824141 and KB828035 both got updated.For that matter, three patches have been updated.MS03-042 (826232)MS03-043 (828035)MS03-045 (824141)However, this is hardly an issue for anyone to sweat about. For the record, the actual patched files have not changed. (See KB 830846). The only thing changed is the update engine (update.exe), and the issue only affected people who take away the SeDebugPrivilege right from administrators. (If you don't know what that means, don't worry, none of this affects you.)If you've already installed the patch, you're protected and do NOT need to reapply. The end result of using either patch is a fixed system. Carry on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gee Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 First I like to say, this is an amazing site. I have been doing the hotfix installation with batch files for a long time, slipstreaming is definitely the way to go.I followed AaronXP's guide and originally I had problems. But after some investigation, I managed to get most of it to work properly (Thanks Aaron)But I still have two problems. When I go to Windows Update, Critical Updates are still listed. Reading through this post several times tells me that I am not the only one. The updates in question areQ330994 - April 2003, Cumulative Patch for Outlook ExpressQ828750 - October 2003, Cumulative Patch for Internet ExplorerAnyone have a solution to this? Here is a copy of my svcpack.inf[Version]Signature="$Windows NT$"MajorVersion=5MinorVersion=1BuildNumber=2600[setupData]CatalogSubDir="\i386\Update"[ProductCatalogsToInstall]KB826939.cat[setupHotfixesToRun]DX9NTopk.exeWMP9MM2.exedotnet.exeupdate.exe -q -nQ823182.exe /Q /N /Z /OQ824105.exe /Q /N /Z /OQ824141.exe /Q /N /Z /OQ825119.exe /Q /N /Z /OQ828026.exe /Q /N /Z /OQ828035.exe /Q /N /Z /OQ814078.exe /Q:A /R:Nq330994.exe /q:a /r:nQ816093.exe /Q:A /R:Nq828750.exe /q:a /r:nQ322011.exe -q -n -z -oQ814995.exe -q -n -z -oQ817778.exe -q -n -z -oQ822603.exe -q -n -z -oQ829558.exe /quiet /norestart /o /nqchain.exeQ282784.exe -q -n -z -oComments, inquiries are more than welcome.

Aaron Posted October 31, 2003 Author Share Posted October 31, 2003 Some people are unable to get their IE&OE patches installed for some reason. I don't know why to be honest. When I did the Update Rollup tests, I used a very basic winnt.sif, 2 hotfixes in $OEM$, no apps or tweaks, and a clean Windows XP SP1 Disc.The only other thing I can suggest is you can try getting both of those patches installed from GuiRunOnce instead, it shouldn't be a problem, as some people install hotfixes from GuiRunOnce and have reported no problems.

Marztabator Posted November 2, 2003 Share Posted November 2, 2003 I just thought of something - Q828026 is regarded as a general Media Player hotfix isn't it? Doesn't that mean that it'll work without WMP9? You know, like, the default WMP8 & 6.4 setup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't that mean that it'll work without WMP9? You know, like, the default WMP8 & 6.4 setup?Its a patch for all Windows Media Players, however if you install this for WMP8, then install WMP9, the patch will need reinstalling, as I have discovered.
