any imported ImageUltra-developed base operating-system module
that yields an Ultra-Portable Image; otherwise, the partitioning
module might not be installed.
v When working with multiple partitioning modules, verify that
partitioning modules are installed in the correct order to get the
desired result.
8. Repeat steps 3 through 5 for each module type you need to modify.
9. Click OK.

Installation-order tips and notes
Tip: If you are installing an Ultra-Portable Image or a Portable-Sysprep Image that
contains the Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7 operating system, a log is
generated that identifies the types of modules that were installed and identifies
when the modules were installed. This log is helpful in determining if your image
has modules that are dependent on one another, or if modules are colliding. The
Modules.log file is located in the C:\SWTOOLS folder. In addition, another log file,
called stamp log, is located in the C:\windows\lastcfg folder.
Notes:
v As modules are installing, the environment state is saved so that if a controlled
reboot occurs, module installation will continue where it left off.
v When a new first-customer-boot module is added to a base map, it is
automatically placed in the “No Preference” category of the installation sequence
for its designated install slot.
v If a base map is constructed such that a partitioning module will be installed
with an imported ImageUltra-developed base operating-system module (for an
Ultra-Portable Image), the Map Settings window must be configured so the
partitioning module is installed before the base operating-system module. There
is no exception to this rule.
v If a base map is constructed such that:
– A partitioning module will be installed with a base operating-system module
developed for either a Hardware-Specific Image or a Portable-Sysprep Image
-AND-
– The partitioning module will never be installed with a base operating-system
module developed for an Ultra-Portable Image
you can technically set the installation sequence in the Map Settings window
any way you want. However, there are advantages to configuring the Map
Settings window so the partitioning module is installed before the base
operating-system module. In most cases, you define the extended partition
defined in the partitioning module to occupy a fixed portion of the hard disk or
a fixed percentage of the hard disk. This enables you to define the primary
partition contained in the base operating-system module to occupy whatever
space is left on the hard disk. By following this practice, you can install the same
base operating-system module with or without a base partition module and use
the maximum amount of space that is available on the hard disk.
