nLite and cMP and STEPPE

After numerous attempts to get a good install disk of nLite over the weekend I thought I would give warning that if you want to go with the full STEPPE regimen you will likely find disappointment, as I did.

For all of the attractiveness of eliminating stuff at install, along with the magic of a fifteen minute install and the elimination of many optimization steps, it just will not allow all that is required.

If you go truly minimal, no AWE. If you go with a disk that allows AWE then you run into problems further down the line.

Gave up and just did it the old fashioned way.

Found that one MUST do XPLite when Serge said to because after ocmanage.dll and WBEM folder is deleted it won't work anymore. No big deal you just put them back in. It lets you know what is missing. It does not tell you one of the files it wants is in the WBEM folder. Good to have another machine around.

I did most of my XPLite after the cMP optimizations as an easy way to get WFP disabled and figured it would eliminate a few RED changes even though you still have to look for them just to be sure. I went too far with file and folder deleting before finishing up and found what I said above.

What a way to spend a beautiful weekend!
