Doh! What a major feature to slyly leave out.. Thanks for the quick reply.

Hello world.

Hi, I'm a bit of a newbie on with PE, so bear with me I have been reading through the various guides on this site (which have already proved to be much more useful than the MS docs). I need to create a bootable DVD which, as I understand from the instructions below, will also have the image file stored on it. However, these instructions do not touch on what to do if the image is larger than the DVD's capacity. The image we have is around 10gb. I have managed to split them on the server share, but I am unsure what to do next (or even if it is possible) . Deploy from CD/DVD: 1. First, add the WIM image to your CD/DVD. a. Repeat the process to create a Windows PE CD to the point where you can add your own custom files. b. Add the image WIM file to the ISO folder. c. Finish the ISO image creation and burn to CD/DVD. 2. Boot target machine from your Windows PE CD/DVD containing your image file. 3. Partition and format drive as needed. 4. Determine the drive letter of your CD/DVD. 5. Replace d:\ in imagex /apply command with the letter of your CD/DVD as needed to access WIM. 6. Apply image: imagex /apply d:\C_Image.wim “Drive C” C: 7. If you need to make any changes to the image you can now access all of the files written from the image and modify them as needed. 8. Remove media and reboot.

Thanks, a great guide and an amazing time saver!
