I forgot about the HAL, the last few I did were Windows 2008 which
only has one, but the HAL can be manipulated in other versions of
windows by booting the vm off a winpe iso and copying the correct
HAL while renaming it if required.
As far as the part about "hard disc support" the author is incorrect
in his assumption. So long as the mass storage controller *is* in the
critical device database, it will boot (depending on which versions of
windows, an edit to boot.ini may be required). It doesn't memorize, like
linux, it will only boot with what it currently has support for unless
you add more drivers.
If you look at the linked batch file, it simply adds additional drivers
into the registry.
What finally made your eeepc migration work?
