    Press any key to boot from UFD

    in Windows PE

    Posted

    Has anyone been able to put the "Press any key to boot from CD..." sector on a WinPE bootable UFD? It would be nice to have the same option when booting PE from a CD. Maybe with the release of PE 2005 they will make this an option, but if anyone has figured this out, please share. Thanks.

    WinPE 1.5 with WMI Support

    in Windows PE

    Posted

    Does anyone know if WinPE 1.5 has been released yet(I have the SMS OSD FP beta, which is a customized verion of 1.5, but I was told by MS that if I wanted to enable WMI support, then I would have to get the OPK customizable version)? I know it is suppose to be in the SP2 OPK, and probably eventually in the Select CDs. I am really looking for the WMI support. Did anyone ever get WMI to work in the earlier versions of PE?

    This is the SP2 RC2 version of the OPK and PE dated May 13th.

    Been in training so I still haven't gotten any farther than building a hard-drive version of PE, but one of the bit things I was looking for is WMI support. Here's from the MKIMG.CMD file:

    /WMI : Include Windows Management Infrastructure (WMI)

    support for WinPE.

    /NOWF : Disable Windows Firewall (which is usually loaded by

    default in WinPE). Use this only if you run server

    apps in WinPE, as client networking is unrestricted.

    Note that disabling the firewall does not reduce

    the WinPE image size.

    So WMI support is optional in the base, as opposed to being part of BuildOptionalComponents.vbs as I would have predicted. And I like the Windows Firewall - now I won't get paranoid about my hard-drive-based PE getting infected.
