[BETA] Update Pack 2.2.1b3 + Integrator 1.5RC1

Post by **RyanVM** » Sun Jan 13, 2008 1:07 pm

For all you impatient folks out there, I'm making available a bundle containing the latest beta of both Update Pack 2.2.1 (b3) and Integrator 1.5 (RC1). As this is a beta release, I'm only making this available via the tracker. Obviously, the usual caveats apply when using beta software. Don't come complaining to me if it kills your computer, crashes your car, or kills your firstborn child.

The beta3 release should resolve the WMI issues that caused many antivirus apps to not register properly with Windows Security Center. It also hopefully resolves the timezone issues people have been having. For the sake of good testing, do NOT use any timezone-related addons with b3.

Known Issue:

Yes, there's an Advanced INF popup at T13 that shouldn't be there. Unfortunately, due to time restrictions (aka, I'm about to leave for a week-long business trip and it was either this or nothing), I'm putting it up as-is for now. It'll be fixed for the final release. Take it or leave it.

That said, if anybody figures out a solution to the problem, feel free to post it in this thread. Otherwise, I'm pretty sure I know which hotfix caused it, and I'll just take it out if no other solution appears.

Changelog here.
Download here.

Please use both parts of the bundle and report your feedback here. Let's make sure the final 2.2.1 and 1.5 releases are the best releases yet!

Nope - look at the changelog - b3 includes KB941644 and KB943485

PS: Ryan thank you for the update and I'm going to test it ASAP

Can someone who downloaded the pack via torrent upload it to a free sharing service and post the download link here? I can't use torrents because they are restricted in my university's campus. Thanks a lot.

Round 2 using nLite 1.4.1 with the following:

RVMUpdatePack2.2.1b3.7z
RVMAddonsWMP10_3.1.7z
onepiece_ie7addon_1.9.2_enu.7z

This time I got the reboot prompt during setup. Before the setup hanged and i reset the vm guest after which it installed quietly.

No time zone bug.

Glad to hear the timezone bug seems to have gone away with the hive work. I also forgot to say in the first post, I'm going to add the WMP9 security updates to 2.2.1 still as well since I've long since stopped work on my WMP10 pack.

yumeyao · Post by **yumeyao** » Sun Jan 13, 2008 9:46 pm

i don't like either wmp9 or 11, leave it out to let users choose it themselves. well, i got confused how many new wmp10 hotfixes available there... is there any unpublic one? or just go thru WU?

bober101 · Post by **bober101** » Sun Jan 13, 2008 10:13 pm

im getting an oobe error 'application error'.b2 didnt have this.im using xp mce.

yumeyao:keeping integrated apps like wmp updated is good if u ask me.dont have to completely replace to a newer version,just keep the one thats shipped on the disc up to date.

bober, unless you've updated your XP source with WMP11 (boooggys stuff) before hitting it with Ryans stuff.

Also, at T13 [blah blah blah I'm an idiot, sorry!]

Hi Ryan, OnePiece solved this issue in his UpdatePack. He suggests to change your [T13] section from...

Code: Select all

im using wmp11 addon after integration.

newsposter · Post by **newsposter** » Mon Jan 14, 2008 5:09 am

I think boooggys recommendation is to run his WMP11 integrator in this kind of sequence:

a) SP2 integration
b) Boooggy WMP11
c) RyanVM (or nlite or ???) for addons and removals
d) driverpacks.net stuff
e) create ISO
f) test test test (on a VM)

Thanks. I got a similar suggestion from rick, so I'll try it out when I get home at the end of the week

ricktendo64 · Post by **ricktendo64** » Mon Jan 14, 2008 9:24 am

kontini's looks like it would work best, it adds the switches to the launched section instead of the rundll32 switch... nice job

Overview

SmartReboot lets you choose whether or not to ask a user to reboot his system. The install engine determines if a reboot is needed for you.

Syntax

[InstallSection]
SmartReboot=&ltparameter>

Parameter
Parameter Meaning
N Never reboot
AS Always reboot without asking
IS Reboot without prompting if needed
A Always ask user to reboot
I Ask user to reboot if needed

Note

SmartReboot is ignored unless the INF is excuted via LaunchINFSection.

I tested just now with those suggested edits and everything tested out perfectly for me in a vm with integration by nlite. Among my addons was onepiece IE7 and Booogy's MP11 was pre-integrated into the source. It all looks good to me.

This is the same as what I do. Works well.

Why do you guys integrate WMP11 before my pack? I would think that's completely backwards...

TechnoHunter · Post by **TechnoHunter** » Mon Jan 14, 2008 4:54 pm

i think that line a) there is SP2 updatepack.. not just SP2

at least.. that would make sense.. -evil grin- but then again.. who said we had to make sense!

IMHO it is completely backwards. I've always integrated WMP11 and it's fixes dead last. This becomes a little more important with WMP9 fixes in your pack, doesn't it? I know nLite does some timestamp/version checking, but who knows how reliable that is.

My ordering looks like:

Ya', no kidding; using nlite I have been able to do all in one operation-ie: RyanVM's pack, Boooggy's WMP11 plus all 11 hotfixes, IE7 and hotfixes (no addon-let nlite slipstream), various shell extension addons-Mrs Peel etc., tweaks, removals and so forth with no errors or problems-typing this on such an install, and MU reports absolutely no hotfixes/updates pending.
When using Integrator to test B2 I slipsteamed Boooggy's WMP11 right after the update pack, before all else-no errors.

Hi,Ryan,
a problem for copy file
nlite delete systeminfo.exe, even if we keep it in [keepfiles].
so I put systeminfo.exe in $OEM$\$$\system32\ folder
but in the the new version b3,it can't copy it to system32 folder after install XP.

Backwards? What would make you think that?

Think of it this way instead...

1st step=SP2 - Not something I have actually done, it is the Pre Integrated Service Pack 2 release, I just went off the other guy's list because I start with a Pre Integrated SOURCE.

2nd step makes it like the the first step, once it is done, then I don't have to worry about it again and I can use the same source to Integrate other updates into it. - Why do it more than once? It becomes my source is all.

I think Booogy has made his WMP11 slipstreamer in a way that it does not interfere with any files that Ryans UpdatePack integrates. I think it would be a much better habit to integrate it after the updatepack though. It just logically makes no since to integrate something that is much newer to your source... then integrate an UpdatePack on top of it. One day the updatepack more than likely may overwrite a file that is needed by wmp11. All addons should be integrated after an updatepack. I'm not saying that it doesn't work the other way... but it does make more since.

Remember... Booogy's slipstreamer also slipstreams any WMP11 updates as well. So if you keep using the same source then eventually you will have a source that is missing wmp11 updates.

boooggy · Post by **boooggy** » Tue Jan 15, 2008 12:40 pm

even if there will be any files in the update pack that will interfere with wmp 11 it wont matter. wmp11 slipstreamer is checking file version and will add only the newer files.
so the moment when u use wmp11 slipstreamer doesnt matter.
though considering that integrator doesnt check file version, it is recomended that when u integrate update pack using integrator to integrate update pack first.
