Hi all,
I succeed to boot minlogon macrocomponent (with USB support) from USB HD
to commandline. I have holidays and that is the most productive time of
the year.
Two things are important: It is not necessary
to put usbehci, usbhub, usbstor, usbuhci to CriticalDeviceDatabase. I only
set group value to Boot Bus Extender for all those entries in Services and
start at 0. But the real break through is exact the same as booting from
CD.
The Bios looses the booting USB drive. Slobodan overcame this with a
forced Arcpath, whitch I dont know how he did until today. I have a
ntdetect.com (from Microsoft, what an irony) which
keeps the Arcpath. And with this ntdetect.com You can boot XPE from any
USB drive (Stick, HD, it doesnt matter). One thing I noticed too:
In my minlogon registry I deleted all enties in CriticalDeviceDatabase.
But after booting from USB, suddenly there appears an entry, which shows
my USB as atapi disk. That leads to 07B BSOD when You boot the NEXT time.
I testet, that there are more bad entries in registry after a successfull
boot from USB, whitch all together gave 07B. If You copy your original
SYSTEM registry hive back, the USB stick still boots one time. I can solve
this, because my USB stick (Buffalo 32MBYTE/s) has a write protect switch,
but I am searching for a more elegant solution.
Nice to hear from You

PS: XP in pocket is now not far away...hihi
