ventoy_wimboot.img Plugin

[nguyen ha thai trong]

Under the plugin for wimboot i see:

You can customize ventoy_wimboot.img as you need
There are many configurations in bcd file in ventoy_wimboot.img. For example, digital signature, test mode ...
You can customize them if the default template doesn't match your requirement.

I want to replace the boot.sdi  to see if it will help booting  Strelec's W11 .wim which doesn't finish booting with the current .sdi. I can unpack the .img with 7zip, but how do I repack it so it's still usable with Ventoy?

I don't see any instructions for repacking the wimboot.img

change wimboot.img to wimboot.iso, use ultraiso to overwrite your boot.sdi and save the wimboot.iso file, then change wimboot.iso to wimboot.img

Thanks, that works, but using the newer .sdi did not help my problem. Something between the W10 and W11 wim files must be dufferent that is causing  the W11 boot not to finish even though it boots fine in UEFI mode.

You can replace bootmgr in ventoy_wimboot.img with bootmgr in standard windows11.iso and it's ok.
