Alright.. since so 'few' have replied.. I will continue with some
questions in hope someone with experience coms along and feels like
helping me.
I want to slipstream my Vista x64 ultimate a bit using vlite... I have
realised this should b a good option. Also... I add some device drivers
for my particular laptop as this image is a personal installation +
'recovery' image. I run vlite to make my slipstreamed image and round 2
is WAIK again.
This is where it gets kinky! I am pondering if I need to make 2 ISO's
or one could do.
Why.. because of these issues: I wish to have programs on D partition
and Users on E.
Now.. for the first install.. I want the whole disk to be formatted and
paritioned as stated in OP... I guess for first round I don't mind it
not being unattended (so I could run the disk part manually) , with
specific USER n PROG locations etc... ALso.. I add programs to be
installed on D:progs....
Ok.. so that will make it a lil more ready out of the box style when I
freshly install...
But now comes the questions.. IF 4 months later I need to reinstall
OS... I wish to use either same disc or a different image.. to reinstall
C (format it and install OS again) but NOT* overwrite the users nor
PROGS on D... So.. if I would use the same disc.. then installing the
unattended programs again would obviously overwrite something.. So lets
say I use a disc 2 which does not reinstall programs on D and must still
point to USERS on E and PROGS on D right? If I do this... how about
registry consistency? the registry for all programs will be gone and so
the idea of putting the programs on D for practicality has gone???
Sigh... How do I solve this with this microsoft way of selling their
products dang. :/
I know from xp once , having such a structure , when I reinstalled C..
many of my programs worked even if the registry was fresh hehe... but I
doubt all of them, plus licensing and product registration values must
of bveen deleted... any ideas on this with WAIK etc.. where I am trying
to go.. what is the best solution in WAIk etc.. when I don't want
factory recovery discs to put on old progs i dont want.. remove the ones
i have installed etc... I want my own layout and I would prefer if users
and programs could somehow persist through an OS reinstall!!!! Please
can someone give a reply iff sees the underlying concept and has good
points to raise (either in solving it in my fairyway wish which
shouldn't really be a problem had MS been more like unix, or in pointing
out what I have to consider so I might figure it out myself).
Thx
