I am working with a customer that uses CD/DVDs only for deployment of images. I have successfuly created a PE CD that will load into a ramdisk and allow me to change the CD and insert the CD/DVD with thier image and then proceed to lay the image onto the HD. They are using Ghost 8, the image is 6G in size and it is taking about an hour to complete. This is on a portable with an internal drive, and a desktop machine. I have tried making the WinPE with the /PNP switch and all the latest drivers (using Drvinst) and without PNP. It starts off really fast (about 700M or so) and then tapers off to about 110M on the portable and around 240M on the desktop. It doesn't do this if we don't use the Ramdisk. I haven't been able to find out how much memory the Ramdisk takes (I assume that it only takes what it needs to load the iso). I haven't tried a dir on the ramdisk but assume (I know. I know. Assumption is the mother of all mess ups) that it will report only the size of the ISO. Can someone point me in the right direction (besides network based imaging)? Has anyone ran into this issue? Thanks, Shawn
