I edited and replaced initflashfiles.dat in the OEM_Lang_0409 and built my ROM. On the first boot, The top bar came up but the WM logo stayed up on my today screen. The phone had an X over it. I couldn't get any of the buttons to recognize except Start+D. I aligned the screen and could then get to my today screen.
The problem then was the file I edited only partially ran. The start menu was totally jacked and I basically couldn't do anything. There was no Settings folder and the Programs folder only contained Windows Medie Player. Where the Menu items would be normally, coldinit and one other file were listed. They normally go in the Startup folder and are hidden.
So, I started over. I put the default file back in the OEM and added my edited version to a custom OEM as suggested. The result is the same. So basically that file, with this new format, cannot be edited. Or, you know, I'm doing something wrong. It's like the file partially processes, but skips the entire top portion where folders are created. I didn't remove any entries. I only commented out the items I do not want to run and changed the Menu entries from Start Menu to Start Menu\Programs.
I've attached the file for someone to go over along with my WM5 kitchen file that always worked.
Thanks smart people.

First thing's first--the file you attached was called BOS_initflashfiles.dat.txt. Did you add the .txt extension in order to attach it to this message or was it there all along? If so, that's your problem. Make sure in Windows you have the Folder Options->View tab->Hide extensions for known file types UNCHECKED so that Windows will always show you the whole file name, including the extension. Otherwise you would see initflashfiles.dat but Windows would hide the .txt, which it considers to be the true extension of the file.
If you added the .txt just to be able to attach the file, reply back and we'll go from there.
