    I agree on the os point.

    Then it comes to security I don't.

    If you can get physical access to a system you own it since you can do the same with any linux cd or ntfsdos.

    This will probly fix itself then winfs becomes standard but until then efs is the easy way to keep data secure

  2. Actually WinPE nowdays should be availible as a product so I would say call your nearest MS office and ask them.

    Earlier you had three ways to get it, Be an OEM, have a valid SA agremment or hire MS consulting to do something that includes PE

  3. Yes you can

    I posted this in the tread boot pe form HD earlier

    1. Grab a copy of mkbt and nt2peldr from bart

    2. make a working ramdisk booting pe iso, place it in c:\ with the name test1.iso

    3. copy setupldr.bin from a server2003sp1 disc to c:\peldr

    4. run mkbt -c -x c: c:\peboot.bin

    5. run nt2peldr c:\peboot.bin

    6. Edit boot.ini and add a line

    c:\peboot.bin="PE From ram"

    7. Create a winnt.sif file with the following in it

    [setupData]

    BootDevice = "ramdisk(0)"

    BootPath = "\i386\System32\"

    OsLoadOptions = "/noguiboot /fastdetect /minint /rdexportascd /rdpath=test1.iso"

    Architecture = "i386"

    Reboot the system and enjoy

    If you don't want to boot from a ramdisk image simply create the minint folder and place the contents of your pebuild/i386 folder in minint

  4. I took a look at the driver int the WSSRA deployment kit and that driver is ok. However the included inf files shouldn't be used. They are way to old to work with pe2005. They also made a type in the WinPESys.inf file.

    To get it working:

    1. copy the ramdrive file from the WSSRA kit to \system32\drivers

    2. run reg exe load HKLM\PETEMP \system32\setupreg.hiv

    3. run the attached ramdrv.reg

    4. run reg exe unload HKLM\PETEMP

    5. make a new iso with oscdimg

    6. boot it and you should hav a ramdrive at r:

    ramdrv.reg

  5. I' ll quete myself again

    According to MS you need to install recovery console to boot PE from boot.ini

    I do present a better solution in the rows below.

    If you need to boot a larger pe than 256MB you have a very bad design. Fix that first. A Pe image cabable of handeling about a hundred diffrent hw plattforms, loading images, resizing disks and loading firmware can be assambled in less than 200 mb. Every unnedded mb takes time to load and if you got 20K plus workstations, that counts

    You dont need to include images or installation folders on the iso. You call theese from pe using variables. That saves time and space but requires some coding skills

  6. You say intel board

    Not by any chance a PIII? They had serious issues with theri nic:s and auto speeds. Firmware helps in some cases. hard locked nic speeds helps in some cases. The best way to fix it? Build your image from server2003sp1 media and use the ramboot feature

  7. I'll quote myself

    According to MS you need to install recovery console to boot PE from boot.ini

    Well, there is another way of doing this. i prefer the new ramboot style so that will be used in this example. The iso filename should be max 8.3 according to noodles so i used test1.iso. Ofcourse you can name it whatever you like.

    1. Grab a copy of mkbt and nt2peldr from bart

    2. make a working ramdisk booting pe iso, place it in c:\ with the name test1.iso

    3. copy setupldr.bin from a server2003sp1 disc to c:\peldr

    4. run mkbt -c -x c: c:\peboot.bin

    5. run nt2peldr c:\peboot.bin

    6. Edit boot.ini and add a line

    c:\peboot.bin="PE From ram"

    7. Create a winnt.sif file with the following in it

    [setupData]

    BootDevice = "ramdisk(0)"

    BootPath = "\i386\System32\"

    OsLoadOptions = "/noguiboot /fastdetect /minint /rdexportascd /rdpath=test1.iso"

    Architecture = "i386"

    A little Easier i think, Or just simply use virtual pc

  8. Hi Krusty

    I dont know with ghost since we use pqideploy instead but i think you must take a new ghost of your sorce machine and take the whole disk.

    I found this on the net on how to restore an entire disk

    ghost.exe -clone,mode=load,src=Z:\E-Client\20008\images\G-Img.gho,dst=1 -sure

  9. ah that could be it.

    Have you tried to clone the entire disk instead of a partition? You should clone the entire disk to get the bootsector and mbr correct.

    I Checked with my people and we got E620 working in our enviroment without problems
