MSMG ToolKit to Convert W8.1/Srv 2012 R2 RTM/GA ISO - W8.1/Srv 2012 R2 Update 1 ISO

In the script, I use aria2c.exe the command line downloader for downloading the updates, may be i need to check the commands i had tested for x86 download and those where download to the correct so i thought the its working ok i will check the command

and about the last update file missing i have used the 7-z.exe command line extracter to extract the update from the downloaded .exe file may be something is missing, i will check and update

Edit : Change the output folder to x64 instead of x86 for the 64-bit packages download part in the script file

Code:

    echo.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    echo.Downloading W8.1/Srv 2012 R2 Update 1 [Windows8.1-KB2919442-X64.msu] Package...
    echo.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    echo.
    %Get% -d %Updates%\x86 -o Windows8.1-KB2919442-X64.msu "%KB2919442-X64%"
    echo.

I will update the script

 

no for download updates section.. never mind i have made changes to script and have added two additional updates for integration.. right know testing the script will update soon..

it seems the command-line downloader is able to download the last update through batch file its giving some http-response error but it works when run in cmd prompt. i need to fix it or i will include that update package along with the two new additional updates.

 

Updated the Script.

Changes:

+ Added Windows 8.1/Server 2012 R2 Update 1 Updates KB2939471, KB2938772 Packages Integration to Boot.wim, Install.wim and WinRE.wim WIM Images.

+ Included the Windows 8.1/Server 2012 R2 Update 1 Feature Pack 4 Update Package KB2949621-v2 to the ToolKit Updates folder.

+ Included two new Windows 8.1/Server 2012 R2 Update 1 Updates KB2939471, KB2938772 to the ToolKit Updates folder (Thanks to abbodi1406 for the Updates).

- Removed the Update Package KB2949621-v2 from the Download Updates Option as the aria2c.exe the command line downloader didn't download from the hotfix download url properly when used within the command batch file.

 

Ok i will put a check for it.

 

Those two updates were extracted from the MSDN released windows 8.1/server 2012 r2 with update 1 ISO. abbodi1406 extracted those two updates and shared it.

The other update KB2937220 also can be extracted but since it's a multi-edition update and has around 306 sub-packages and it will be difficult to make a common pack as its share some files with all editions so he didn't make a cab file for it.

 

I will consider making it and need to know whether all updates can be installed at once and do a restart finally.

.Net Framework 3.5 is now pre-requisite for using the NEW MSMG ToolKit for Windows 8.1/Server 2012R2 coz removal of some default Metro apps depends upon the install_wim_tweak.exe which requires .Net Framework 3.5 to be installed.

So i will be adding an option to install .Net Framework 3.5 when trying to remove default metro apps.

The Main ToolKit is getting delayed again due to the arrival of the Windows 8.1/Server 2012 R2 update 1. the default metro apps have been refreshed and some of the apps build numbers have been changed and also Microsoft OneNote have been added, so now i have to make changes for it.

Microsoft changed the updates list today by including a new update KB2934018 and removed KB2949621-v2 from Windows 8.1/Server 2012 R2 Update 1 and also there is no sign of these updates (KB2937220, KB2939471, KB2938772) too. Now it's different from even MSDN released ISO's.

 

How about KB2937220, KB2938772 ?
