“Delta” WIM creation
Posted: Mon Apr 10, 2023 12:19 pm
I am looking to create a “delta” WIM from two starting WIM files. I see
that —update-of and —delta-from exist and could create a “delta” WIM
*during the capture process*, however my use case is as follows:
1) there is a full disk image for a product; version 1.0 this is used as a
“master1” image for production.
2) version 2.0 of the product is created, and is “master2” for production.
We don’t want to change our normal build and release process.
Starting with master1.WIM and master2.WIM we would like to create a
“delta-1-2.WIM” file where with the master1 and the delta-1-2 files we
could recreate master2. We would like to do this for “patch” distribution
to the field.
Is there a way to accomplish this using the command line today? The two
things we would need are “create-delta”. And “apply-delta” type operations.
Thanks in advance, John
