adding FR-CA language pack to WinPE

Hi,

I have found a way to add a language pack to WinPE.

But we would like to use a French Canadian keyboard instead of a AZERTY Keyb



Is FR-CA available?


Many thanks!

 


1. Mount your boot.wim with imagex using the /mountrw option.
ex: imagex /mountrw c:\winpe\iso\sources\boot.wim 1 c:\winpe\mount

2. Open regedit, highlight HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, go to the File Menu and
select Load Hive...

3. Browse to {boot.wim mount}\windows\system32\config and select the file
DEFAULT. Name the hive WINPE_DEFAULT when prompted.

4. Open HKLM\WINPE_DEFAULT\Keyboard Layout\Preload. Change the value 1 from
00000409 to 00001009.

5. With WINPE_DEFAULT highlighted in regedit, from the File menu select
Unload Hive... and click Yes if prompted to confirm.

6. Unmount boot.wim with ImageX, making sure to use the /commit option.
ex: imagex /unmount /commit c:\winpe\mount

7. Recreate boot media, using oscdimg for CDs/DVDs or recopy the ISO
contents to a UFD.

Hi Shane,

It did it!

Can we do this with the French Canadian instead of US?

Thanks!

The 1009 value is the French Canadian keyboard. 409 is the US keyboard. You
can look in the WAIK documentation to get all of the keyboard values.
