So whoever generated this technote would appear to be supplying misleading information. Most likely, we wouldn't have included it because we wouldn't have had enough time to test it before making it the default PreOS, and in particular it wasn't clear whether it's work any better than Vista in small-memory (i.e., 256mb) machines where we had to really strip down Vista to get it to boot. Putting Win7 into the management environment isn't that hard either, it's something we simply hadn't committed to and done already in the GSS 3.0 environment becuase Win7 PE still really didn't exist at the point when Symantec shut down development, and so we were getting the GSS 3.0 Beta out before putting someone onto that closer to Win7 release before deciding what we'd do. Here is the text of a posting by one of the developers of GSS (Nigel Bree) in response to whether GSS is compatible with WinPE 3:Īctually, it's perfectly compatible with Win7 PE, and indeed just about any version of Ghost ever is - after all, the only thing Vista did to really break compatibility was UAC, and UAC doesn't affect WinPE at all as you're implicitly logged in as LocalSystem.
