wimboot Custom boot.wim

[yvkr]

Hi,

it seems the Problem is just about the size of boot.wim not the content.
I took a working boot.wim with a size of about 267MB and began adding dummy data just by using dd
(dd if=/dev/urandom bs=1M count=5 >> boot.wim).

It still worked at a size of 322MB.
It stopped working at a size of 330MB.
At 330MB, the errror message changed to the one attached.    
(File: NETIO.SYS, Status 0xc0000017)
Adding another 5MB changed the error message back to the original one. (Only Status: 0xc0000017 without giving a file)


The ISO File contains the very same first big boot.wim and has a total size of about 438MB.
Omitting the raw Parameter to MEMDISK makes the VMware showing only a black screen after loading the iso and beginning to boot.
