Thor VM3 Utilities
The following files are preloaded.
LAUNCH.EXE
Launch works in coordination with registry settings to allow drivers or applications to be
loaded automatically into DRAM at system startup. Registry settings control what gets
launched; see the App Note for information on these settings. For examples, you can
look at the registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ HSM \ Persist
Launch will execute .CAB files, .BAT files, or .EXE files.
App Note
All applications to be installed into persistent memory must be in the form of CAB files.
These CAB files exist as separate files from the main installation image, and are copied
to the device using ActiveSync, or using removable media such as a USB drive. The CAB
files are copied from into the folder System, which is the persistent storage virtual drive.
Then, information is added to the registry, if desired, to make the CAB file auto-launch
at startup.
The registry information needed is under the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \
HSM \ Persist, as follows. The main subkey is any text, and is a description of the file.
Then four mandatory values are added:
FileName is the name of the CAB file, with the path (usually \System).
Installed is a DWORD value of 0, which changes to 1 once auto-launch installs the file.
FileCheck is the name of a file to look for to determine if the CAB file is installed. This
will be the name of one of the files (with path) installed by the CAB file. Since the CAB
file installs into DRAM, when memory is lost this file is lost, and the CAB file must be
reinstalled.
Order is used to force a sequence of events. Order=0 is first, and Order=99 is last. Order
must be greater than 4 for the Thor VM3. Two items which have the same order will be
installed in the same pass, but not in a predictable sequence.
There are two optional fields that may be added:
1. Delay is used to add a delay after the item is loaded, before the next is loaded. The
delay is given in seconds, and defaults to 0 if not specified. If the install fails (or the
file to be installed is not found), the delay does not occur.
2. PCMCIA is used to indicate that the file (usually a CAB file) being loaded is a radio
driver, and the PCMCIA slots should be started after this file is loaded. By default,
the PCMCIA slots are off on powerup, to prevent the “Unidentified PCMCIA Slot”
