To add a device driver to an offline Windows PE image (Windows Server 2008 R2)
This procedure demonstrates how to use the Deployment Image Servicing and Management (DISM) tool to add a device
driver (.inf) to an offline Windows PE image. Before running a DISM command, first mount the Windows PE image.
1. Mount the base image by using the DISM tool to a local Windows PE directory. For example:
Dism /Mount-WIM /WimFile:c:\winpe_x86\winpe.wim /index:1 /MountDir:c:\winpe_x86\mount
NOTE: The directory structure c:\winpe_x86 is used throughout this procedure.
2. Add the .inf file to the base image by using the dism command with the /Add-Driver option. For example Driver.inf is the
Broadcom driver, evnd.inf is the driver for the 10 Gbps devices, and b06nd.inf is the driver for the 1 Gbps devices.
Dism /image:<path_to_image> /Add-Driver /Driver:c:\winpe_x86\mount\Windows\driver.inf
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for each additional device driver.
4. Unmount the image after modifying it.
dism /unmount-wim /Mountdir:c:\winpe_x86\mount /commit
5. After unmounting the image, burn it to the designated media.
To create a bootable CD-ROM
1. On your technician computer, at the command prompt, create an .iso file by typing:
oscdimg -n -bc:\VistaPEx86\etfsboot.com c:\VistaPEx86\ISO C:\VistaPEx86\VistaPEx86.iso
2. Burn the iso image to a CD.
WINPE 3.1
To insert the NetXtreme II monolithic driver into a WinPE 3.1 boot image (Windows server 2008 R2 SP1)
1. Open the WinPE image and mount it:
