Linux support

can I run this on linux?

[draylegend]

@Maxb0tbeep do you mean in a VMWarePlayer or virtualbox? Or do you mean whether tiny11 supports Windows Subsystem for Linux?

all this script is windows specific you have no chance to get it to run on linux.

[InsertX2k]

Short answer no.

Long answer, You can't run this on Linux because dism and reg utilities aren't available under a Linux environment.

Long answer is yes, use WINE

[ianis58]

I really think that the "dism" utility will not work / miss dependencies if you try to run it on wine.
You can't run it on Linux except if you do in a windows virtual machine.
You need to run it on an up to date windows 10.

Worked fine enough when I was using it in Linux for Windows 8 ISO

Impressive I did not knew that something like that exists!
Still it would need to rewrite the whole script to use wimlib instead of dism, but yeah definitely possible with that!

I am not sure that it will work with /Remove commands for component removal but is does work fine with imaging part.

So, you definitely can mount wim under Linux and from there abuse WINE prefixes to use mounted Windows image DLLs and use dism binary from the actual image.

But I would still recommend using VMs :)

Although reg.exe is bundled within the binaries of Wine, Dism.exe isn't.

@InsertX2k yeah, but is it not possible to use the DISM.exe from the image like he said?

[draylegend]

@s3rj1k did you use it in wine?

[s3rj1k]

@s3rj1k did you use it in wine?

Yep, I used wine :)

[InsertX2k]

@InsertX2k yeah, but is it not possible to use the DISM.exe from the image like he said?

dism.exe uses the Windows's Virtual Disk service, which isn't available or can't be used on Wine in Linux

[s3rj1k]

@InsertX2k yeah, but is it not possible to use the DISM.exe from the image like he said?

dism.exe uses the Windows's Virtual Disk service, which isn't available or can't be used on Wine in Linux

Still, if the VDS service works properly there might be other services required by dism.exe that can't be started on linux.

However, if you managed to properly run dism.exe under a Wine environment then congratulations!🎆

@s3rj1k a bit off-topic but do you think it's possible to have IIS on Wine?

Probably not in production grade working state and breaking every possible licenses.

WinPE would be my second choice.
