I recently started using NTLite after using MSMG Toolkit for a couple of years (back in the days I was using nLite frrequently). My Preset is far from perfect, but I am trying get there and it is not looking to bad. While the normal installation is working, I do have the issue that I cannot get the inplace upgrade working (The installation failed in SAFE_OS phase with an error during REPLICATE_OC operation).

Before I start to narrow it down manually by create image after image: does anyone have seen this before or can help me look in the right direction?
 
Check if your existing Recovery partition is large enough (>= 700 MB). If you have an older partition layout where Recovery is in front of Windows, you'll need a repartition utility to try moving it to the end of the disk (or delete it, and recreate it).
 
I will have a look, but I don't think it is that. If I take a "blank" iso without any NTL modifications the upgrade is working. Should have mentioned that in the first post - mea culpa.
 
Since you're doing an in-place upgrade, try restoring:
Code:
                <c>sourcessxsdir 'Manual feature repository'</c>
 
Yes, that did the trick. Thank you very much.

Before I open another thread: The next and hopefully last issue is the crashing notification page in the system settings as soon as I try to access it.
Do you have an idea for that as well? After inplaceupgrade it does not work, clean install is not an issue.

Okay, solution was pretty easy. I compared the registry settings for the path [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SystemSettings\] on the InPlaceUpgrade and CleanInstallation. The Inplace had a lot more entries and I created a reg and imported it using AdvancedRun.
