    No, I found the ISO I created, and then give it a shot to install and those errors appeared.

    If you need more info, I could give you some, in case you need:
    • I created a modded Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64-bit
    • I'm using Windows 10 1909 LTSC as wim or bla bla (as required from the tutorials)
    • Patching/modding steps went well, the errors is appeared after I did install the ISO (after its first boot to be exact)

    You can tell me if you need more.

    And used it as source for my tool?
    At the OP I advise to use 2016 LTSB for the win 10 source, 1909 LTSC doesn't exist.
    Try another USB, at least check the integrity of the USB.

    Don't use modified ISOs, use clean MSDN/MVS ISOs.

    The tool uses starter as base, on x64 starter will be created for it.

    If so, could you provide the download links for these MSDN/MVS ISOs?

    Edit: Fixed some typos.

    All MSDN/MVS ISOs are available at the SVF Repo by @GezoeSloog it's linked at in his sig.

    Hey, I just worried to download wrong Windows 10 ISO. Could you provide me one?
    I've downloaded Windows 7 ISO you suggested in earlier.

    Very well. Another questions:
    Is it fine if I skip all driver installations? What I'll do here is to install necessary drivers later.

    Why do you run this tool at all?

    You seems forgot or that's your ideas to not add a "question" script whether to add it or not (like other options e.g. DaRT).
    So I thought it was important, that's why I'm asking.

    I'll give another try in the morning or so, downloaded all required (specific?) Windows ISOs. My suggestion is, maybe you need to add whether User want to install those additional drivers or not. Overall, I love your work!

    I initially made a very specific tool, that simply created a win 7 boot.wim that could handle install.esd, integrates DaRT, drivers and utilizes the updatepack abilities, very simple (at my level of coding).

    The options to not integrate stuff were not intended but because of demand, i will see if i can also create a no for the driver integration.

    The post I mentioned earlier also covers this potential situation. I have very slightly modified scripts as examples for two additional situations: no driver integration at all or custom drivers integration if you do not want the generic usb3 drivers and have already replaced all extracted drivers with those specific to your hardware in the three driver subfolders wlan, nvme and usb (for x64).

    You can also use these examples to learn how to integrate other drivers too, such as chipset, sata etc.

    Maybe create your own tool and maintain your own thread?
