Hello Dietmar,

I have been following this thread with interest, and have been trying
without success to boot XP Embedded from a thumb drive. First I would
like to thank you for sharing your work with us.

I can get a USB stick to boot DOS or Windows 98, however, in this case
the USB stick is recognized as a floppy disk (A:). Slobodan has
indicated that this is caused by Intel drivers, and is bad for usb boot
:(.

I have an Advantech 6870 motherboard that uses intel drivers (The intel
XPE components include 5 different Intel 82801 components, Intel 82802
Firmware Hub device, Intel 82815 Graphics, Intel 82815 Processor to IO,
Intel Pro/100 Network.)
From your version 1 tutorial you state 'do not include intel INF5', and
Click to expand...
from version 2 'Do not include intel chipset drivers. My XP embedded
image (Pre FBA) has 104 INF files in C:\Windows\INF. A search for INF
files containing 'Intel', 'INF5' and 'Chipset' yields the following
list of possible drivers that cause the problems:

INF Files containing string 'Intel', and/or chipset.
----------------------------------------------------------
biosinfo.inf Contains string 'chipset'
cpu.inf The processor
e100b325.inf Intel 8255x-based PCI Ethernet Adapterdir
i81xnt5.inf Intel 82810 Graphics Controller
layout.inf Contains strings intelide.sys, intellim.chm,intelppm.sys,
mdmintel.inf,intelppm.sys, keybdintel.inf, usbintel.sys,
machine.inf contains section [INTEL_SYS] with various Intel VID/PID
descriptions
mshdc.inf contains setcion [INTEL_HDC] with various Intel VID/PID
descriptions.
OUSB2.inf Contains string 'Intel USB 2.0 Enhanced Host Controller'
ssigd.inf Intel 815 Embedded Graphics Driver
usb.inf Contains section [Intel.Section] with StandardHub.Dev VID/PID
pairs
usbport.inf Contains section [Intel.Section] with StandardHub.Dev
VID/PID pairs
wdma_int.inf Contains section [Intel] with intel Audio driver
descriptions

After all that preparation, my question is simple.

a) Which INF do I remove?
b) Do I need to add something else to replace that functionality, and
if so, what?

Also, when formatting with HP format utility, do you use the internal
boot files or an external set?

Thanks,
Steve Schilz.
