need help installing the rtm iso to my laptop

[miguel11691]

i have the hp stream 11 and i installed it before and it works great but takes a lot of space... i was told i had to reinstall it using wimboot and it will free up almost 10GB of space... can anyone guide me on how to do this?

I don't think you can use wimboot with the tp

How many gigs is it

 

[michael nabil]

16 gb wimboot devices are not supported

My HP Stream 11 is 32GB...

 

[michael nabil]

Do you have an iso

 

[miguel11691]

Yes I have an iso

If you install it and it doesn't install a wimboot version then it's probably not supported on the insider preview. The official release is 3 days away, just wait and see what will happen. I think most 32 gb wimboot devices will be supported

I was under the impression that these types of devices ran the mobile version of the os...

No it runs a compressed version of windows aka wimboot

After you install it, type this command in cmd
*fsutil wim enumwims c:* without the arterisks.

If the output is like this:
0 {32E66EF3-3CE0-4A04-8F17-25B2929407D1} 00000001 \\?\Volume{8f4fbaed-dc86-4f7d-803d-55611b59fe39}\windows images\install.wim:1

Then it was installed as wimboot, if not then I suggest you wait for release to see what happens.
