78 Running Deployment Scripts Using DTK and Microsoft Windows PE

Creating and Customizing Images for

Windows PE 2.0

If you are using Windows PE 2.0, download

Windows Automated Installation Kit

(Windows AIK) from the Microsoft website at

www.microsoft.com

. By default,

Windows AIK is copied to the

C:\Program Files\Windows AIK

directory.

NOTE: DTK 3.2 for 64-bit systems supports only Windows PE 2.0.

Integration of DTK Directory Structure in Windows PE Build

DTK provides a script, VPE_driverinst.bat, to pre-install the Dell drivers into

a base Windows PE 2.0 image (winpe.wim). Use the following steps to

execute this script in 32-bit or 64-bit supported systems:

Open a command prompt on your system and change the directory to the

location of

VPE_driverinst.bat

Example for 64-bit supported systems:

cd C:\Dell\x64\Drivers\winpe2.x

Example for 32-bit supported systems:

cd C:\Dell\x32\Drivers\winpe2.x

Execute

VPE_driverinst.bat

with two required arguments:

and

. For example:

VPE_driverinst.bat <WINPEPATH> <DTKPATH>

Where

is the destination path to create the directory

structure for Windows PE 2.0 and

is the path to

Dell drivers in the extracted DTK toolkit. For example:

VPE_driverinst.bat C:\vistaPE_x86 C:\DELL\DRIVERS

This will pre-install the Dell drivers into

winpe.wim

NOTE: <WINPEPATH> is passed as the destination to the Windows AIK command

copype.cmd. The destination folder C:\vistaPE_x86 is created as part of the

process, and should not already exist. The destination path and the path to Dell

drivers should not contain any white space.
