[GUIDE] [DISCUSSION] Windows Editions Reconstructions

You need to login to view this posts content.

 

Last night, I reconstructed 26100.1 with WNC and WinVOS. The Reconstruction is fine, but the image cannot boot to OOBE.

This is so-called "Residual" of source.

It is similar to using "PPIPro" as source image. The reconstructed image won't boot to Desktop.
Why? The Settings is different between regular Edition and PPIPro.

[About WinVOS]

Q: What is the difference between ValidationOS_Install and ValidationOS_Boot?
A: ValidationOS_Boot has Microsoft-OneCore-BootFromWim-Package enabled.

@xinso do you remember how did you get 17784.1068 Core working?

 

If you mean Client Core. it is the very same old way. But I had deleted it because there is no Client language pack and update. Sorry.

 

It actually had a issue, when manifest for EditionPack was malformed, so I changed from this:

Code:

  <update name="5a969c6b50d3fdfc687d69c32d6ae67b">
      <package contained="false" integrate="hidden">
        <selection name="SMB1Protocol" state="true" />
        <selection name="SMB1Protocol-Server" state="false" />
        <selection name="SMB1Protocol-Client" state="true" />
        <assemblyIdentity name="Microsoft-Windows-SMB1-Package" version="10.0.17784.1068" processorArchitecture="amd64" language="neutral" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" buildType="release" />
      </package>
    </update>

to this:

Code:

  <update name="5a969c6b50d3fdfc687d69c32d6ae67b">
      <package contained="false" integrate="hidden">
        <assemblyIdentity name="Microsoft-Windows-SMB1-Package" version="10.0.17784.1068" processorArchitecture="amd64" language="neutral" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" buildType="release" />
        <selection name="SMB1Protocol" state="true" />
        <selection name="SMB1Protocol-Server" state="false" />
        <selection name="SMB1Protocol-Client" state="true" />
      </package>
    </update>

.
It works now.

Code:

Store is blocked.
No links in DataStore.edb.

 

[Confirmed]
26100.1 "Reset This PC". i.e. "Recovery", is availible in Client Settings only. No "SystemReset.exe".

 

When you have nothing to do, try to slim down Source Image as much as possible.

 

Didn't MSMG talk about forcing the server language pack to install on client?

 

I have no idea about that.
