MAVERICKS CHOICE Posted September 5, 2007 Author Share Posted September 5, 2007 (edited) @IDYou are correct & I haven't disputed that if you see my second post....Quote....Sources Directory need only the two files boot.wim and install.wim it works fine on dvd boot UA :blink: Edited September 5, 2007 by MAVERICKS CHOICE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dobby Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Perhaps ID is suggesting that you don't even need the catalog files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAVERICKS CHOICE Posted September 5, 2007 Author Share Posted September 5, 2007 Thats also correct, but if you want to modify further with the waik you will need the catalogue files. My Idea Dobby, to remove many of the bloated files within not the p***y ones OK...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sp00f Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 First of all this isnt the place to discuss vlite... but hey who am i......Vlite doesnt remove everything, i mount the install.wim and remove everything by hand, like all example videos and music etc.I only have boot.wim , install.wim and the .clgfolders : Boot, efi, and sourcesSo thx again MAVERICKS CHOICE , works fine for me.

Innocent Devil Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 to further for a BIOS based PC only two folders required boot and sources (with right content)efi, upgrade etc can be deletedalso from boot directory etfsboot.com,memtest.exe,bootfix.bin and fonts folder can be removedi m not sure abt the en-us folder, probably it can also be removed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxXPsoft Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 kewl Innocent DevilI'll try next go round Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Innocent Devil Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 with sp1 der is no mui for bootsect.exe so en-us can be removed.so boot dir will end up with bcd and boot.sdibtw why m$ ships boot.wim with WinPE (boot.wim #1)and WinRE( with setup.exe)(boot.wim #2) ?deleting winpe will not reduce the boot.wim size by much but still why so ??
