Reatogo-X-PE

[HoppaLong]

I know The CD Forum is the place to go for info on all "PE" related matters.

I posted about this almost two days ago. No reply.

I thought this would be easy to answer for someone already using Reatogo.

Before I abandon the original BartPE, I'd like to know if Reatogo offers a

wider range of driver support. BartPE natively supports network and

storage drivers.

I found this list of supported drivers on the Reatogo site:

300 Drivers Audio

310 Drivers Disk

320 Drivers Display

330 Drivers Modem

340 Drivers Network

350 Drivers Other

Are there individual folders for each driver category, like in BartPE?

If there are seperate folders and I wanted to add chipset drivers,

would I add them to the "Other" folder?

With Bart, you can create complex plugins to get around its driver

limitations. I'm hoping Reatogo would make it a little easier to

add drivers.

I'd recommend checking out the Winbuilder project(s) for XP or PE 1 solutions. Personally I prefer WinPE 2 since driver integration is greatly simplified.

You said the magic words, DigeratiPrime.

A PE app that greatly simplifies driver integration would be a huge relief to me!

Picking out nonexistent errors in inf files is enough to drive anyone crazy.

I'm going to check out WinPE 2 immediately.

Thank you!

No problem HoppaLong

Your going to need WAIK for Vista or 7.

And depending on if your working with PE 2.0 (Vista) you use peimg, if PE2.1 (7) you use dism to service drivers.

for example:

peimg /inf=c:\mydevice.inf c:\winpe_x86\mount\windows

dism /image:C:\test\offline \Add-Driver /driver:C:\test\drivers\1.inf /driver:C:\test\drivers\2.inf /driver:C:\test\drivers\3.inf
