Tomato Garden Server 2003 is a bootleg Windows Server 2003 SP1 all-in-one ISO, which was created by TomatoLei. It was released on November 25, 2005, and was added to the archive on December 12, 2021.

Description

The bootleg is a modified Windows Server 2003 SP1 all-in-one ISO, which comes with a boot loader integrated, which you can use to access the versions which we will soon discuss.

The ISO comes with 4 versions of Windows Server 2003 SP1, 2 of them being the Enterprise and Standard editions. The other 2 are stock, without any changes. You can choose to either manually or automatically install the OS, using an unattended script to do the job.

Alongside those, you can also boot into "System Boot Repair" (really just NTLDR with a special boot.ini), a Windows 98 boot disk (with some extra programs, namely CuteMouse 1.9, F32 MAGIC 2.0, SAMING Quick Fdisk/Format, the FDISK from Windows ME, Symantec Ghost 8.2 of course), Paragon NTFS for DOS, Symantec Ghost 8.2 (cracked, registered to Leilei of Tomatolei.com), Disk Manager 9.56 build 0208 and PartitionMagic 8.0 build 192 (both, in Chinese), and finally, Efficiency Source Hard Drive Repair.

The OS itself comes with 20 new themes, 11 new wallpapers, and 20 new updates. It comes with its own autorun. It is preactivated.

A program named "XPlode 4" will get ran during Setup, which will install all of the bundled programs and apply all of the necessary tweaks. The same program will get ran again on startup, only this time it will install all of the bundled updates.

The ISO was made using nLite, the autorun was made with AutoPlay Menu Loader 4.3.0.288, and the boot selector used was EasyBoot 5.0.
