Running Deployment Scripts Using DTK and Microsoft Windows PE 81
Creating a Bootable CD
Use the following steps to create bootable media:
1
Click Start , navigate to All Programs → Microsoft Windows AIK .
2 Click Windows PE Tools Command Prompt to open a command prompt
window.
3 Run the following command:
oscdimg -n -bc:\vistaPE_x86\etfsboot.com
c:\vistaPE_x86\ISO c:\vistaPE_x86\WinPE2.0.iso
This command creates a CD bootable ISO image called WinPE2.0.iso .
You can use any CD burning software to burn the image onto a CD.
After burning the ISO image, ensure that it boots from the CD drive for all the
supported Dell systems you plan to deploy. After it boots, you are advised to
test all the tools and scripts on these systems to ensure that the integration
went well and there are no issues with hardware components not being
recognized.
CD-Based Local Deployment
You are now ready to use your bootable CD to call the deployment
components from the directory structure on the CD:
1
Boot the target system with the bootable deployment CD.
2 Execute the master batch file, which calls individual task scripts and
utilities from the CD to complete the deployment process.
CD-Based Local Deployment With Networking Enabled
You can also use your bootable CD to call the deployment components from
the directory structure on the CD and the remaining components from the
network share:
1
Boot the target system with the bootable deployment CD.
2 Execute the master batch file, which calls individual task scripts and
utilities from the network share to complete the deployment process.
