SECRET
CreatePartition will not be able to create a covert partition. If this happens, select
another thumb drive to configure using CreatePartition.
(S) The most likely reason for failure is when the overt storage on the thumb drive is too
large to create the specified size of covert storage. Try deleting overt files, or use a
smaller covert partition. Care should be taken to not make the covert storage too large, or
it may be noticeable. Typically, a covert partition of 5% to 10% of the original disk size
is about as large as the covert partition should be.
(S) After using CreatePartition to create or change the size of the covert partition on the
USB drive, be sure to reformat the overt partition using Windows. Ensure the USB drive
is inserted into the computer. Open Windows Explorer and locate the icon for the USB
drive. Right-click the icon and a list of options appears. Left click on Format. Choose the
appropriate settings for the USB drive and click Start to format the drive.
4.1.2 (U) IExpress
(S) IExpress is a Microsoft wizard that simplifies the creation of a setup program. The
wizard allows a user to create self-extracting files that automatically run a setup program
that is contained inside. To create the IExpress package, follow these steps:
• Place MOBSLangSvc.exe (ExpressLane3.1.1 renamed), WLUpdate.exe, and any
of the biometric system files into a folder called IExpress on the C:\ drive.
• At the command line interface type iexpress and hit Enter - a Welcome Screen for
IExpress will appear.
• Select the "Create new Self Extraction Directive file" radio button and click
Next.
• The next screen is the "Package purpose" screen. Select "Extract files and run
and installation command" radio button and click Next.
• Type in a title for the package: "MOBS_Upgrade". Click Next.
• The "Confirmation prompt" screen appears next. Select the "No prompt." radio
button and click Next.
• On the "License agreement" screen select the "Do not display a license." radio
button and click Next.
• Next, add the files to include in the package. Click on the Add button and an
explorer window appears. Navigate to the IExpress folder and select
MOBSLangSvc.exe, WLUpdate.exe, and any of the additional biometric
system files needed for the installation. Click Open. The explorer window closes
and the files selected should be listed on the "Packaged files" screen in IExpress.
If all of the files are listed click the Next button.
• Now choose the install program to launch by selecting WLUpdate.exe from the
drop-down menu to the right of "Install Program". Ensure that the "Post Install
Command" is set to <None>. Then click the Next button.
