Boot + Log-on Screen Addons

[Moon_Star]

hi there

I was searching for an easy way to slipstream boot and log-on screens

but all what I found wasn't that simple

so I've Contacted RyanVM and asked him if he can add this to the RyanVM integrator (witch I like so much, great program)

but he told that it would be easer if anyone can make an addon for this

so let's see who can help with this.

the question now is:

how can we make the boot and log-on screen addons.

waiting for experts.

install vista transformation pack6 and copy the kernel file and logonui file to $oem$\$$\system32 folder and use it.

sure this is gonna work?

no need to modify the boot.ini file?

IS THIS POSSIBLE THAT NONE CAN HELP MAKING THE ADDON?

ANY WAY I'VE FOUND AN ADDON IN A FORUM I'LL ASK THEM FOR HELP HOW TO MAKE THIS

THANKS PPL.

bootcfg /RAW "/Kernel=MPntoskr.exe /SOS" /A /ID 1

bootcfg /Timeout 15

krnlvis.exe is the vista style single processor kernel and mpntoskr.exe is the multiprocessor kernel. u have to extract them from 2 different computers(one single proc, one multi proc) coz both kernels would be in the same name(ntoskrnl.exe).

store the above code in bootlogo.cmd and add this line to winnt.sif

BOOTLOGO.CMD

for logonui, use this reg :

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]

"UIHost"="%Windir%\\system32\\vistaui.exe"

I didn't find the files krnlVis.exe and MPntoskr.exe in non of the systems, where it is available. And I also tried the above method using oemkenl.exe and dualkenl.exe found in some systems and the same also not working.

Required help pl.
