Win XP operating system image production skills big release

First, the system disk is streamlined

Usually we install a lot of components and services in the system is not needed, usually not used at all, so We can streamline the XP (2000) installation disk and remove what is not useful to us. Here I recommend using "nlite", this software can be customized for various 2000, XP, the latest version is 1.0 b6. MicroSoft needs to be installed before installation. NET Framework, software can be selected after the installation of Simplified Chinese, it provides more functions, there are "Service Pack integration", "patch package integration", "drive integration", "component removal", "unattended installation", "Patch", "Optimization", "Make bootable image" 8 functions, you can choose some or all of the functions when you customize your own installation disk; here I mainly apply its "component removal" and "production bootable image" Features. However, according to my experiments on the virtual machine, the "patch package integration" function of this software is invalid. If you want to integrate the latest patch in the installation package, you need other methods. The components that are specifically removed are listed in the attached configuration file.

We can also make this disk into a fully automatic installation disk that can be left unattended. Considering that the "unattended installation" function provided by nlite is not very complete, we can use the "Setup Manager" provided by Microsoft. Setupmgr.exe)" (this tool is included in the XP installation disk) tool to create an automatic answer file -winnt.sif, the detailed production method is available online, and will not be written here.

I originally made a fully automatic installation disk. I only need to insert the CD-ROM drive to fully install the system, completely unattended installation. But later in the actual application process, found some problems, the first is to use this disk to first format the system partition, when installing the system, you must use another sodium 舳 舳 舳 緿 緿 OS, complete the format of the system disk For the NTFS format system partition, because pure DOS can not be identified, can not be formatted, followed by the inability to select the system installed partition, can not delete, convert, format the partition, thus losing the characteristics of the installation disk The function makes people feel that it is not too convenient. So I modified several parameters in the "winnt.sif" file, so you can choose to install the system partition during the installation process to achieve the operation of deleting, converting, and formatting the partition.

Second, system image production

After installing a new system, you must set the system accordingly. The Ghost file size can be minimized, and the restored system can also be reached. The best performance. The steps I generally use are the following:

1. Make all the patches for the system. You can download the entire patch from the Internet, or you can download it yourself, and then make a batch file and install it together.

2. Install WMP10. Components such as the .NET Framework.

3. Install various drivers for the system.

4. Set the home page blank.

5. It is forbidden to use system restore (you can remove the "system restore" function in the process of streamlining the system disk).

6. Delete the extra input method

7, transfer the "My Documents" directory, so that the files in "My Documents" before Ghost do not need to be backed up, and can be used directly after recovery.

8. Delete the backup patch information. After the system patch is patched, the system backs up the patch information under C:windows, so that the patch can be uninstalled later, but the patch is generally not uninstalled. We can delete the information, and each patch information has corresponding A folder named after the patch has hidden attributes, just in the C:windows directory. After deleting, the C drive has more than 100 M.

9, finally finishing the system disk.

After this system is set up, basically achieve the best performance, you can make Ghost files.

Prepare a separate partition, FAT32 format (need to boot to pure DOS to access this partition, other partition format is not limited), put the ghost.exe file, boot with the boot disk can use Ghost backup system .

After installing the system, I usually do two mirrors. The first time I install the system, it will be ghost (of course, I have to sort out the hard disk first), so as to maintain an original system; then follow the above points. After setting up, install the office and do another mirroring. The advantage of doing this two mirrors is that when the driver installed in the second image is old and the new system has more patches, it is more troublesome to install the new driver and patch after restoring the system, so that we can restore to the first. After mirroring, installing new drivers, patches, and optimizing settings, you can create a new image instead of the original second image. It is convenient to reinstall the system. I generally don't consider installing common software before Ghost (except for office, because basically no update), mainly because these software updates are very fast, if you usually need to use large software, you can also install it before making the second image file. This avoids wasting time and effort.

The above are some of my experiences and so-called experiences since I played the computer for 5 years. The shortcomings or mistakes are all pleading for criticism. If you read this article and feel helpful to yourself, I will feel very gratified.
