They should be reprimanded for this, we are their customers. I can only advise you to put an exclusion on the Win10XPE folder. Skip to content. Star Branches Tags. Could not load branches.

We just start the batch file and walk away.

Liquis, Inc. We have a PXE system setup. The server runs ArchLinux, and pushes the Windows image. It's quite fast, even on Mbit ethernet. It's double-NATed, so it still has Internet access, but it doesn't touch our network. Loading drivers isn't as automatic as I'd like, but other than that it's pretty cool. Someone else set it up, so I'm a little fuzzy on how it works.

I'll see if I can get they guy who built it to post on here. I first created the image on the "test" box. Then I sysprep'd the image. Next I captured the image to the server with GhostCast. Whenever I needed to deploy the image on a new computer of the same type, I would just plug the new computer into the switch and GhostCast the image on to the new computer.

Now I still had to join the computer to the domain after all that. First I created a winPE boot disk. At the same time I put imagex on the boot disk, as well as the wimscript. Imagex requires wimscript. Imagex is the file that captures the image of the system. Dont forget Sysprep is still used here.

Before setting up PXE boot server, each client computer you want to boot should meet following conditions:. The working process is roughly like this:.

The client connects to the network and sends out a DHCP broadcast. The DHCP server picks up the broadcast. As you can see, the operation is relatively complicated.

What I am trying to achieve is create my own bootable image with certain apps running on it and boot directly into a live image of it. Understand that memdisk only works for BIOS based computers. Where are you seeing that error message. Is it transferring over the winpe iso image to the target computer? FOG Project. Register Login.
