Re: Customize your StartMenu for PPCKitchen.org's - BuildOS - Tutorial

I will definitely look at this though. Looks like a helpful tool. Perhaps we can streamline it further.
I tried that initially, but since the files are already entered in the initflashfiles.dat, I was getting duplicates. So I came up with the renaming thing...That and my start menu\programs list was 3 pages with QuickMenu.

Also, after rereading, are you talking about the start menu or Start Menu\Programs? I am thinking it looks more like \Programs. If this is the case, I can show you an even easier way to do everything you want to do here. While BuildOS may be "limited" this is done to keep it simple. However, you can do just about anything you can think of with it while leaving the core files in the .rars.
This whole project started because the of the files in \windows\start menu directory, since these are mostly \sys files I came up with this. But it also covers \windows\start menu\programs as well.

One other thing, you don't technically need to create the directory as long as there is a shortcut going into it. However, if it is going to be empty for now, you have to create it seperately.

Good work though and I think this will help a lot of people.
I've read up on provxml and tried creating the mxip series type of files, with no luck for moving the files or keeping a certain reg key the same value after a soft reset. I did notice I didn't have to create the dir first, but I thought I'd go with a cautious approach just in case. I haven't coded in years, but that MenuIzer program sounds like it could be popular! And thanks!

Ah, that is true. The initflashfiles.dat will still place the shortcuts in \Programs. Well, let me get a prov together and hopefully that will help you out a bit.

Yes, the Menuizer would be a great project. Like I said, I think the only real problem will be addressing how it handles the different apps users will choose. However, it wouldn't be difficult ot have it include the "standard" shortcuts.

Re: Customize your StartMenu for PPCKitchen.org's - BuildOS - Tutorial

Heh, by the way, you could create a whole new initflashfile.dat that would overwrite the original on too. Just thought of that. Anyway, back to the prov.

I had old_man_jenkins say that was a bad idea. But I thought this would be the easiest way to do it and keep noob's away from the important stuff. I had nightmares of susie_noob editing the initflashfiles.dat with ms word and saving it in that format. I wanted them to get in there, rename a couple of lnk files and get out without hurting too much. And with the provxml, a little much for the noob keeping track of syntax of xml, and what not, and I have gotten away from usercustomization. While tierautoinstall is cool (selectable cabs), I not sure if it does provxml.

Tautoinstall doesnt have to do provxml. Those are installed automatically. As far as xml, it will do that.

Re: Customize your StartMenu for PPCKitchen.org's - BuildOS - Tutorial

Here is where I am ...

I have cut down a great deal on the applications that I install post-flash. Most of the items I do install (UserConfiguration) require human-interaction to complete the installation. Thus, I have a need to create folders and move shortcuts around, once the install process has completed.

It seems that one way to do this is via the XML: command

Now, here is my question ... I want to test the XML command and in the readme for TAutoinstall, is mentions that 1.8 works with the XML command. Unfortunately, even with a config.txt that references the xml file, I can't get it to show up in my list of items to check and install.

Best regards,
-boggsie

You cook your own rom right boggsie? Well since this tutorial I took colonel's advice and I edited the initflashfiles.dat directly. If you use the kitchen, just copy to my oem and ppckitchen will overwrite it.
I have taken all start menu items and moved them from initflashfiles.dat into my oem's initflashfiles.txt.

Here is what I have with my personal rom:

Re: Customize your StartMenu for PPCKitchen.org's - BuildOS - Tutorial

Whoa - I appreciate that rstoyguy.

So this handles the items that go in via the PPCKitchen. Unfortunately, all of the post-cooking / flash installs aren't impacted, or can they be ... hmm, I guess you could insert dead shortcuts; shortcuts that wouldn't work until after the applications had been installed. I'll have to think about that.

What I wanted to avoid was doing the same work, on different items, using two different methods.

a) PPCKitchen items need to get cleaned up, so use initflashfiles.dat in a user oem to clean those things up.

b) Some applications get installed on first boot (SDAutorun or TAutoinstall) and so those get cleaned up with via cleanup.xml, as the last command in config.txt, prior to resetting the device.

Thanks again for your insight.

Best regards,
-boggsie

Re: Customize your StartMenu for PPCKitchen.org's - BuildOS - Tutorial

A little different approach. I thought I would post here, too.

Basically, each OEM has the necessary (required) components listed in the options.xml for that office, accessories or media oem (attached). If you add the OEM to USER_OEM and refresh or restart BuildOS, you'll see a new group (hopefully) at the top of the OEMs in BuildOS. (. Organize Start Menu).

If you select an oem, it includes the required modules and organizes the start menu for those items.

The attachments are a WinRAR files, but I added the zip extension so that I could upload the files and attach them to this message.

Best regards,
-boggsie

If you select an oem, it includes the required modules and organizes the start menu for those items.

The attachments are a WinRAR files, but I added the zip extension so that I could upload the files and attach them to this message.

Thanks for the files! But just one thing, with xml, if a file isn't there, doesn't it kill the whole file?

I'm just thinking about the ppckitchen update in 2009 that may not include some of those files....
