LS on XP embedded

[Raffaele Turra]

hallo i would like to try to use LS as a shell in a XP embedded runtime,
the best way to achieve this is to "componentize" it: hence i should
know which binaries, core operating system files, or registry entries
that are required by an LS installation in order to work properly.
Could you point me to any resource?
Has anyone of you heard of any componentized-LS before?
Thanks in advance,

Raffaele Turra

Hi Raffaele

First of all you need the LiteStep binary files. These can be
downloaded from http://www.lsdev.org/doku.php?id=lsdev:downloads

Then you need to make LS the default shell by changing some registry
entries. Read this to learn all about that:
http://www.lsdev.org/doku.php?id=lsdev:discussion:explorer_takeover

You now have LiteStep installed and working. But you won't be able to
do much with it since you have no modules and no themes.

Most (all) themes these days depend on OTS2. OTS2 is just a collection
of folders, configuration files and utilities. You can read about OTS
here: http://o-t-s.sourceforge.net/

On a normal computer, LOSI sets all of this up for you. How you would
do it on embedded XP I don't know.

To get the right folder structure with the correct files and
everything the easiest way is probably to copy the LiteStep folder
from a normal computer that has LS installed already.

hi Tobbe and thanks
yes, i'll install LS on a XP to clone files and subdir structure, and
i'll add the needed registry keys.
i'll let you know when finished and working! :)
