WinSetupfromUSB - Adding 5 Different WinPE Images

Featured Replies

Good Morning -

I've been using WinSetupForUSB for a while now and love it! It's the only app that I've ever been able to find that does just what I need it to do. Currently, I have a 64g USB/eSATA Kanguru drive with multiple WIndows installations, Linux Dists, and utility discs.

Here's my issue: I use SCCM to deploy operating systems (OSD) at my work. To do this (since I don't have PXE), a 150 mb boot disc is used which is basically Windows PE. I have 4 major discs that I use for two different distribution points and the x86 and x64 versions of each. I also frequently use a different Windows PE image to copy WIM files from images.

I tried to add each of these images with WinSetupFromUSB by extracting each to different folders, then adding them under the Windows7/PE section. The problem is that when I went to edit each of their titles in the menu.lst, I was that each of the 5 images I imported had the exact same entry (below)

title Start Windows PE x86

map --unmap=0:0xff

map --unhook

root (hd0,0)

chainloader /bootmgr

I also tried adding the ISO itself under the Linux ISO section. It copied successfully to by USB drive. When I booted to the menu and loaded it, I was surprised to see that it actually started loading Windows PE, but gave error messages soon after it loaded the GUI.

Does anyone have any suggestions to how I can get all 5 different images onto one drive?

Thanks!

Which PE do you use? Based on XP, Vista, 7 or another?

How does this boot? Do you use a RAM disk or flat files?

How do you build this PE?

Which boot manager do you use at 64g USB/eSATA Kanguru drive?

ISO emulation support basic access, at GUI part you have to support ISO file too.

Reconfigure your PE files.
