MUST thanks my friend Qiuping Huang provide this method,

and now I use VMWare to make it work

First of all let's do some preparations

1.Download Windows Vista serice pack 2 pre-beta from here,

Vista Serice Pack 2 pre-beta x86

then create it to be an ISO file,I named it SP2BETA_16497.iso

2.Install VMWare workstation ,create a virtual machine with a 20GB virtual hard disk and allocate all disk space to the virtual harddisk,this will be helpfull to enhance virtual machine performance,Rick has made a good lite edtion,VMWare Workstation Lite,just regiter a trial key from vmware.

3.Create a PE2.0 ISO file must include imagex utility,you need not do this if you already have one

How to create a PE2.0 ISO?

1st dowload MS windows AutoInstallkit(AIK) for Vista sp1 from here

Windows Autoinstall Kit(WAIK)

Install WAIK via mount WAIK ISO file to virtual CD

click "Windows PE Tools Command Prompt" shortcut when installation finished

Run below command line at command prompt window,

copype.cmd x86 d:\PE

then copy all the folders/files under "C:\Program Files\Windows AIK\Tools\x86" into "d:\pe\ISO" folder

Run below line under "C:\Program Files\Windows AIK\Tools\x86" to make a PE2.0 ISO( 218MB),i named it PE.ISO

oscdimg.exe -bd:\PE\etfsboot.com -h -u2 -m -lWINPE d:\PE\ISO d:\PE.iso

:sweatingbullets: OK, again please forgive me, this is my first time using a virtual machine environment and I'm just getting familiar with it.

My question is about where you are installing the WAIK program?

You say: "Install WAIK via mount WAIK ISO file to virtual CD".

I take it that you mean to install it in the virtual machine, but how can you do this before there is an Operating System installed first?

DON'T YOU HAVE TO INSTALL AN OS FIRST ON THE VIRTUAL MACHINE? before you can install the WAIK?

Thank you,

John

Yes, I've gotten this far but I don't see how you go from the "d:\PE>" to "c:\" to run the command "C:\Program Files\Windows AIK\Tools\x86>oscdimg.exe -bd:\PE\etfsboot.com -h -u2 -m -lWINPE d:\PE\ISO d:\PE.iso" on the Windows PE Tool Command Prompt?

Forgive me for being so new with this but I am very interested in making a Vista SP1&2 bootable disk.

I hope that there is someone to respond to this inquiry. Thank you.

PS Plus I've realized that I also need to reverse integrate SP1 first. So, I imagine that any advice here will help me with both.
