I'm using a motherboard with integrated ethernet and other peripherals, but
in my image I don't need net and others, but if I delete or disable these
services (trying to understand which ones) during the dependency check they
are added again.

Someone could tell me how disable a service permanently?

Thanks

Hi,

1. Disable in TD options "Auto resolve dependencies"
2. Remove component.
3. Start check for dependencies.
You will have list of components that need component that you have removed.
4. As long as you have unresovled dependecies fall back to step 2. and remove these components.

Thank you, just 2 questions:

- why I cannot disable some components like (e.g.TCP/IP) when I have
disabled the network card and components?

- why the image dimensions are not affected so much removing components? (I
have removed audio, network, RPC, telephony ...)

Massimiliano,

You can disable any component in the configuration but Dependency Checker may bring it back (as another node though).
Did you turn off the Auto-Resolve dependencies option in TD?
What TCP/IP component specifically you are talking about and what exactly the error or behaviour you see when you are trying to
disable it?

Or (just a thought) are you asking why TCP/IP components are still brought in to the Configuration even if you disabled the network
adapter components and etc.? This probably means you have some other components in the Configuration that require the TCP/IP stack.
If you turn off the Auto-Resolve dependencies, you will be able to see what components require it (in the dependency checker error
log or Tasks).

Or you can use ConfigurationExplorer tool component from www.xpefiles.com to explore your Configuration component dependencies.

sions are not affected so much removing components? (I
have removed audio, network, RPC, telephony ...)

This is a bit wierd question. For the primitive components (not marco ones) you can see their size.
Again, did you turn off the Auto-Resolve dependencies option?

To view the size of an individual component, select the component in the configuration. The compressed and uncompressed component
sizes are displayed in the component details pane (on the right side in TD).
With SP1 Tools you can also easy estimate the footprint increase of adding a component.
