Creating a Bootable Image Using Windows PE 2.0
For the client systems that do not have an operating system installed, you can
create a bootable image that contains CCTK to run the CCTK commands on
Windows Preinstallation Environment (Windows PE). Windows PE provides
a standalone preinstallation environment that is used to prepare a system for
Windows installation. Use Microsoft Windows Automated Installation Kit
(Windows AIK) to create a Windows PE image. You can integrate CCTK,
HAPI, and related drivers into a Windows Imaging Format (WIM) file.
Using the WIM file, you can create a bootable ISO image.
1
Download Microsoft Windows Automated Installation Kit (AIK) from the
Microsoft website.
2 Install AIK.
3 Download the CCTK installation file, cctk-win-a.b.c-buildnum.msi, from
the Dell Support website at
support.dell.com and save it on your system.
4 Double-click the installation file to install CCTK.
5 Integrate the CCTK directory structure in a WIM file using the
following steps:
CCTK provides the
cctk_x86_winpe.bat and cctk_x86_64_winpe.bat script
to integrate CCTK, HAPI, and related Dell drivers into the WIM file.
a Navigate to the directory where the script is located. By default, the
script for 32-bit systems is located in the
cctk\X86 directory. The script
for 64-bit systems is located in the
cctk\X86_64 directory.
b Run the appropriate script with the .wim file and CCTK directory
locations entered as two arguments.
cctk_winpe.bat <path_of_wim_file> <path_of_cctk>
If CCTK is installed on the default directory, the 32-bit system script,
cctk-x86-winpe.bat , would be run as:
cctk_x86_winpe.bat C:\winPE_x86
C:\Progra~1\Dell\CCTK
If CCTK is installed on the default directory, the 64-bit system script,
cctk_x86_64_winpe.bat , would be run as:
cctk_x86_64_winpe.bat C:\winPE_x86_64
C:\Progra~2\Dell\CCTK
