Oh, is that what you meant, nope, that's a no go. Thought you meant, can an Enterprise Edition be remade using the CDIMAGE parameters as for Ultimate. That is possible
Is it possible to convert from professional to ultimate? Cause i tried that and it generates a 4+GB file. From ultimate to HP it worked
I know I'm digging up an old topic, but since my question is basically about the same subject, I thought it would be better than creating a new topic with zero background information. I tried to recreate both Windows 8.1 ISOs from November 2014 and ran into problems. 1. en_windows_8.1_with_update_x64_dvd_6051480.iso (4.320.526.336 bytes, SHA1: A8B5DF0B0816280AE18017BC4B119C77B6C6EB79): newly created ISO is different by only 2 bytes: at 0xB021 and 0xB061, the original ISO has "00" on both and the new one has "02". I used CDImage 2.53m (modded version that uses -g-8) and the original CDImage 2.53 which requires changing the timezone to -8.00 Pacific coast (USA and Canada). Both commands output the same ISO: Code: CDIMAGE_253.exe -u2 -udfver102 -bootdata:2#p0,bextractedFilesFolder\boot\etfsboot.com#pEF,bextractedFilesFolder\efi\microsoft\boot\efisys.bin -o -lIR5_CCSA_X64FRE_EN-US_DV9 -t11/21/2014,10:03:36 extractedFilesFolder Win81x64.iso CDIMAGE_253m.exe -u2 -udfver102 -bootdata:2#p0,bextractedFilesFolder\boot\etfsboot.com#pEF,bextractedFilesFolder\efi\microsoft\boot\efisys.bin -o -lIR5_CCSA_X64FRE_EN-US_DV9 -t11/21/2014,10:03:36 -g-8 extractedFilesFolder Win81x64.iso 2. en_windows_8.1_with_update_x86_dvd_6051550.iso (3.209.969.664.bytes, SHA1: C7FA828E01E98B601E0ACA8019F1CB223EB23223): newly created ISO is 3.208.495.104 bytes, 1474560 bytes smaller, or 1440 kbytes. It seems the x86 ISO requires the same boot parameters as the x64 ISO instead of just -b<path>\boot\etfsboot.com like with Windows 7 x86 ISO, but the end result is the same as the x64 ISO, a difference of 2 bytes at the same locations. These are the commands I used: Code: CDIMAGE_253.exe -u2 -udfver102 -bootdata:2#p0,bextractedFilesFolder\boot\etfsboot.com#pEF,bextractedFilesFolder\efi\microsoft\boot\efisys.bin -o -lIR5_CCSA_X86FRE_EN-US_DV9 -t11/21/2014,19:59:16 extractedFilesFolder Win81x86.iso CDIMAGE_253m.exe -u2 -udfver102 -bootdata:2#p0,bextractedFilesFolder\boot\etfsboot.com#pEF,bextractedFilesFolder\efi\microsoft\boot\efisys.bin -o -lIR5_CCSA_X86FRE_EN-US_DV9 -t11/21/2014,19:59:16 -g-8 extractedFilesFolder Win81x86.iso What did I miss? EDIT: An unrelated Google search lead me to the solution: the -bootdata parameter was missing the option "e" to disable floppy disk emulation. So, the correct commands for both Windows 8.1 x86 and x64 are: Code: CDIMAGE_253.exe -u2 -udfver102 -bootdata:2#p0,e,b<folder>\boot\etfsboot.com#pEF,e,b<folder>\efi\microsoft\boot\efisys.bin -o -l<label> -t<date>,<time> <folder> <file.iso> CDIMAGE_253m.exe -u2 -udfver102 -bootdata:2#p0,e,b<folder>\boot\etfsboot.com#pEF,e,b<folder>\efi\microsoft\boot\efisys.bin -o -l<label> -t<date>,<time> -g-8 <folder> <file.iso>
May be basically the same problem, but you should have posted this in the Win8 forum. There may be someone there with your answer that never looks at anything that has to do with Win7. Besides posting something about win8 in a win7 forum could be considered Off Topic.
