SP2 images are bigger than SP1 images by about 5% to 10%.
I was hoping that bigger sizes in SP2 would be offset by some better
componentization. But, there wasn't much of that. Some, but not enough.
Are there any component dependancies that can safely be broken? I'm still
mad that Outlook Express is required on a system without users. (IIS
requires it.) And, on a machine that will never print anything, I still
need to drag in all the local and remote printing stuff just to satisfy
Microsoft Networking. I haven't had any luck selectively disabling or
removing any of these odd components that get dragged in. Either FBA fails
or the image misbehaves.
I hope that the inevitable size increases in Longhorn embedded will be truly
offset by better componentization. I'm tired of fighting size issues.
