iso file, or disk image, of Windows 7 purchased from Microsoft's online store. Microsoft originally released WUDT in October, when it touted the tool as a way for netbook owners to create a bootable flash drive from a downloaded. Net Framework 2 and the Image Mastering API before installing WDUT, according to new instructions published by Microsoft. Customers running Windows XP must install.
However, because Microsoft was forced to split the new WDUT into several components due to licensing requirements, some users must now go through a more complicated installation procedure, Galli acknowledged. WDUT has now been released under the provisions of GPLv2, Galli said yesterday.
Rivera, who writes the Within Windows blog, said Microsoft compounded the problem by not acknowledging the source of the code embedded in WDUT, and by not sharing the source code for its modifications, or for the tool itself, to the project - as required by the terms of GPL (GNU General Public License). Earlier in November, Microsoft pulled WUDT after blogger Rafael Rivera accused the company of lifting code from the GPLv2-licensed "Imagemaster" open source project.
