Custom shell - install after first boot .....

[Cato Svellingen]

Hi,

I want to install my custom shell (myAppl) after the FBA has finished. This
makes it easier as regards to registry settings etc...
I guess I have to set cmiShellPath = myAppl.exe in Target designer, but can
FBA deal with the Appl. not being there the first time it boots ?
So that I can start TaskManager and run explorer.exe and install my
application .....!?

How can I do this ?

Cato, you can easily do this by making a registry change after FBA.

review this thread from the first of the week.

Cato,

I am just wondering why would you need to install the app that become your target shell?
Wouldn't that be easier to componentize the app and hence have it prepared and don't think how FBA deals with it?
