SP1 slipstreaming guide

Did you update the wim index that got installed?

To others:
This is exactly (or more or less) what rt7lite does. Most people say you can only slipstrea vista and windows 7 by reversed integation, but I didn't understand how vlite and rt7lite were able to do it then. So I took a look at how rt7lite did it and this appears to be the way.

Rt7lite only updates 1 index at a time, so you'd have to do every edition in install.wim separately. What I don't understand is why rt7lite can do the whole procedure of extracting sp1 and all cabs inside, mounting image, integrating sp, saving and unmounting image in 20 to 30 minutes. The integration allone takes more than 30 minutes here, so rt7lite must do something to make it faster.

I don't know if the redundand backup files are still in the iso. Does anyone know where they are stored? Or if anyone still has the integrated iso with rc that got leaked a while ago, can you check the install.wim size?

And why rt7lite's image is bigger than when using this method: that's due to the structure of wim files. If the same file exists in multiple indexes, it's only stored once. Result: If all indexes are updated than the old files aren't there anymore in any of the indexes, so they don't need to be in the wim. If you slipstream using rt7lite than only 1 index is updated, meaning that the newer and older files are still there.
Second thing is that rt7 doesn't export the image, this cuts down the size by about 100MB.

And if an app is using files inside the mountdit or you have an explorer window open in the mountdir, then it can't unmount.

 

Did you unmount the index first?
So mount index 1, integrate, unmount, then mount index 2, integrate, unmount....

All languages are in the servicepack and in the mum files, but only the erquired langpacks are actually integrated.

 

It could be. Just do 1 first, than 2, 3 and keep increasing the number by 1 every time. At some point dism will say the index doesn't exist, you're erady then.

 

No need for waik or windows7, just follow the guide. Both dism and imagex are in the zip file to you can download, and when extracted you'll find them in the tools folder

 

I'm in my bed now with my mobile, so I'll have a look at it tomorrow. But, what's an aio dvd? Both x64 and x84 in same install.wim, ore something else?

@Subpsyke: yes first integrate langpack, then use the right sp1 wave that contains portuguese. First do the langpack and follow the tutorial that can be found somewhere here, cause you'll need to edit boot.wim also with new lang. Also notice that, to make the eulas show correctly, you need to copy the portuguese language folder AND the english one in step 3 of the guide.
