Br4tt3 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Hi pepz.I have been in this forum and seen numerous entries on PXE booting WinPE 2005 (built from Win2003 SP1) into RAM from that RIS box. However, none of them seems to do the trick for me so my question is:1. Is there anyone that has a nice guide on how to place a winpe.iso on the RIS box?2. What entries that are relevant to the .iso boot in regards to the .sif file?I know that this would be somewhat of the "over and over" subject.. but what do u do when things dont work out for ya? I guess lots of folks would like to know how this works.. The functionality works great running it from a CD / DVD, but not RIS.. when reading the MS documentation on how to place WinPE on RIS isnt exactly clear, as there seems to be several ways to do it according to diffrent webbies.Soz for bringing this 1 up again...Best RegardsThaSausageEater..

ChrisBaksa Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 That problem could have been solved easily by 1st traslating the document into Polish. That combined with the alzheimers would have made perfect sense!Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deploymentgeek Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 1. Create a custom Windows PE 2005 built from Windows Server 2003 SP1 media. 2. Create the following folder structure on the RIS Server \RemoteInstall\Setup\English\Images\OSD_Install_CD\i386\templates3. Copy the OSD iso image (named zti_install_cd.iso in this example) to the \RemoteInstall\Setup\English\Images\OSD_Install_CD\i386\ folder 4. Copy ntdetect.com, startrom.com and setupldr.exe to \RemoteInstall\Setup\English\Images\OSD_Install_CD\i386\templates5. Rename setupldr.exe to Ntldr6. Create a text file named Winnt.sif in the \RemoteInstall\Setup\English\Images\OSD_Install_CD\i386\templates folder with the following text[setupData]BootDevice = "ramdisk(0)"BootPath = "\i386\System32\"OsLoadOptions = "/noguiboot /fastdetect /minint /rdexportascd /rdpath=%INSTALLPATH%\%MACHINETYPE%\zti_install_cd.iso"Architecture = "i386" [RemoteInstall]Repartition = No[OSChooser]Description = "OSD Installation CD"Help = "OSD Installation CD"LaunchFile = "%INSTALLPATH%\%MACHINETYPE%\templates\startrom.com"ImageType = WinPEVersion = "5.2 (0)"Note: Don't forget to Configure RIS (Using GPO) to display the tools menu since wy changed the ImageType to WinPE.
