If this is under WM5 and onwards, the file system is now on internal flash so
this doesn't use up memory (RAM). However pre WM5 this is not the case. Your
out of memory exceptions, are you getting these when you are running your
applications?

Hi,.
I have one more question. Its regarding SQL Server Compact Edition. Is it
safe to install sql server compact edition in Flashdisk instead of RAM. Will
it cause any problem?
Also is it possible to build a .NET compact framework CAB ourselves by
adding all dlls (that it installs) so that we can specify the destination
directory. This is because .NET framework is taking more space and is
reporting out of memory exception. So would like to install it on FlashDisk.
Can anyone please let me know on this.

I'm not sure what OS that device runs but silent installs do not work well on
Windows Mobile (>= WM 5.0). My advice is to avoid attempting to achieve it.
The default directory is specified by the CAB file, you can't change it, you
can only change whether the app gets installed via flash or RAM. Even when
you use an INF, the path is still hardcoded.
If this is your CAB file, simply change the location of where your
application will be deployed. The easiest way to do this is build the CAB in
VS (not command line as you see many sample apps do) and use the file system
editor.

Hi, I want to install a .NET framework CAB file onto the handheld device -
CASIO IT600. I was using wceload.exe with /noaskdest option and it was
installing in windows folder by default.
Now i want to specify the destination directory. i want to do a silent
installation without any user interfaces. I tried using inf file to specify
the .net framework cab but that doesnt work. For the application specific CAB
directory path in inf works. But its not working for .net compact framework.
Is there a way to do a silent installation of .net compact framework CAB to
a specific destination directory on the device. Please let me know if anybody
have done this.
Thanks,
