OK. I've searched but I can't find a simple howto do this.

What I have

- PXE boot to a DOS virtual floppy, map a network drive, batch files to launch Ghost.exe, and some other stuff.

and with a quick flick of the TFTP server

- PXE boot to WinPE2005 image

What I need

- PXE boot to WinPE2005, map a network drive, batch/vbs to launch Ghost32.exe, and some other stuff.

Has anyone done this, and could provide some scripts/snippets ?

Sorry this is lazy, but I'm doing a hundred things and don't have the time to work it all out now.

Muchos Thanksos to anyone who can help.

Check out this thread on the CD911 Forums for the PXE & TFP portion - basically, you need to build your WinPE 2005 image from Server 2003 media:

And... Microsoft has a "solution accelerator" called BDD which has a working example of what you are looking for regarding scripts & a working implementation of using Ghost32 & WinPE as you mentioned. Look at the scripts related to "Lite Touch Deployment". The current version of BDD is 2.0, but a newer 2.5 version is soon to be released.
