Version Question/Update Info

[compstuff]

I did an integration test today and so many things didn't work that I am going over everything to try and see what I did wrong but if I could ask what version seems to be stable? Is it 41v14? I was using41v15-4.

 

EDIT: OK I clearly found some mistake in my work so I am running it again this morning, but some of the silent installers should have worked and I can't see anything obvious... I got rusty at doing this lol

 

EDIT: I really did have to shake off the rust lol... All my SFX installers worked after I fixed my work... now I am working on the numerous MS updates that showed up but I am pretty sure I have the answer on those as well... I will report back

Well great news... everything that went wrong with my image is completely corrected and it was all issues on my end which means that the updates and all my SFX/silent installers worked fine. Now I will be testing adding drivers which takes me the longest

<p>It might be useful to document your complete process.  I would be quite interested to see it in as much detail as you can give, a tutorial if you will.  I think you use KUC if I remember right.  And I'm pretty sure I remember that you do a couple of other interesting things as well.  Anyway, it might give others an example of how they could do something similar, not to mention giving you something to refer to the next time you get rusty. <img class="bbc_emoticon" src="http://www.wincert.net/forum/public/style_emoticons/default/smile.png" title=":)" /></p>

That's actually a great idea and something I have been negligent on... even now some special transforms and scripts I use to add some unique customer items are driving me CRAZY because I can't recall exactly what I did 4 months ago.

 

I still heavily use the KUC to give me a finished product and I still think using it along with the ToolKit is the absolute BOMB for making a solid image. I need finish the image I am currently working on and I also need to think about how to document what I do but I realize what a great idea that is also because I am 100% sure that those of you that have better skills than I do could help me streamline my scripts and methods and I would really appreciate that a lot!

 

Should I just create a new thread here with an appropriate title and then keep adding to it as I log my methods or should I create it in the ToolKit Guides section?

 

The more I think about this the more I think just how useful this could be to all the users on the forum... I don't mean MY methods but maybe a special subforum that is geared towards users documenting what and how they do things and sharing methods scripts etc... I am actually pretty simple in my skills and I am SURE I could learn soo much from others peoples methods.

 

Liam what do you think?

Yet another advantage of doing this would be that if you ever have a problem with a new release of Win Toolkit, it will be real easy to just say "See part 4 step 3 - [link]" rather than have to explain things from scratch every time.  As far as where to put it, it will probably be good for it to end up in the Guides section, especially if it ends up with screenshots etc - less likely for it to get buried - but I think it would be appropriate to just start a thread here, and if Lego thinks it is a good idea he can always move the thread to the Guides section later.  Kind of give it a chance to be "vetted".  Just a thought.  I'm sure either way will be fine.

 

Cheers and Regards

Personally, I only integrate mandatory updates (about 105+ updates for Win7), not the complete repository of Mcrip or others,

It has many advantages:

 

smaller integration time

smaller size

still on GDR branch

less chance to have problem at integration and/or installation

easier to debug in case of problem
