Questions about Winpeshl

[Rbcc56]

My Winpeshl consists of 

Startnet.cmd

dopartition.bat 

Apply-win.bat

Make-Dir.bat 

%systemdrive% \sources\setup.exe

 

Question 1  Do the quotes in   : %SYSTEMDRIVE%\Windows\System32\diskpart.exe, /s  %SYSTEMDRIVE%\Windows\System32\diskpart.txt  go around "/s %systemdrive....."  or just the "%Systemdrive....at the end?Pa

 

Question 2  Can I use Partition letter "A" in the partitions.txt file.  Or is that only for the disk drive [Which I don't have one]?

 

Question 3:  I only used Disk letters :  C,A,T,U,D  but when it Runs Windows  in VMWare Workstation `17.6.2 It has completely different letter C,D,E,F,G  Why?

 

TIA

WinPE reassigns all volume letters based on the order in which the volumes are enumerated. Typically it goes in ascending order from Volume 0, but there are some instances (on real hardware) where a volume (or disk) is not made available at the same time every time and those letters can change. Because of this, I usually recommend that only the disk that is meant to be imaged (or worked) is connected when booting to WinPE.

Questions :

Does it matter which version of Windows that you use?  I noticed that your  on Win 7  and the base machine is Windows 11?

Is there a way to circumvent the way windows enumerate the drives? if so how?
