I build a custom windows 10 installer via sysprep (windows 10 pro Build 20H2). The windows created wim-file is too large to my liking, over 9gb (want it to fit on a 8gb drive). Therefor I was trying to use wimlib to recompress the file and inject in into my windows installer.
As I wanted to use secure-boot without creating a separate partition on my drive. So as the partition need to be fat32 therefor the intend is to compress and split.
Testing the original wim-file, the installer completes without any issues.
Not knowing if LZMS solid is allow to be split, I tried this without success. Compression worked like a charm, shronk to 5.6gb.
Code: Select all
winoptimize.cmd install.wim --solid
RENAME install.wim install.esd
Code: Select all
wimsplit.cmd install.esd install.swm 1000
As expected the compression is a bit less, but should still fit a 8gb drive
Code: Select all
winoptimize.cmd install.wim --compress=LZX:100 --chunk-size=2M
wimsplit.cmd install.wim install.swm 1000
And what the maximum supported chunk-size is for LZX within the windows installer?
Thanks in advance
