Boot Phases (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

If a device is registered under the Autoload registry key, you can specify the boot phase during which the device is loaded with the BootPhase registry entry. This registry value enables the OS to access the locale table in Wince.nls if it is stored on an external storage device.

The following example shows the BootPhase registry entry:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Autoload\<your file system>]
   "BootPhase"=dword:0

The following table shows the possible values for BootPhase.

Value Description

0

Specifies that the locale has not been initialized.

1

Specifies that the locale has been initialized, but the full registry is not yet functional.

2

Specifies that the registry is functional.

Note

The BootPhase entry is only applicable for Autoload file systems and autoload block drivers. This entry does not apply to block devices that are loaded by Device.exe.
