considerations
The
\minint
directory
does
not
exist
on
the
Vista
version
of
Rescue
and
Recovery.
The
new
folder
in
Vista
is
called
\tvtos
and
the
entire
preinstallation
environment
operating
system
is
contained
in
a
.wim
file.
To
edit
the
.wim
file,
you
need
to
obtain
the
imagex.exe
file
in
the
Microsoft
OPK
for
Vista.
Working
with
WIM
files
and
ImageX
Windows
Vista
deployment
is
based
on
disk
imaging
with
ImageX.
ImageX
utilizes
file
based
imaging
with
WIM
files
instead
of
sector-based
image
formats.
Considering
this
formatting
development,
use
the
scenario
in
when
installing
and
deploying
Rescue
and
Recovery
on
Windows
Vista.
