Creating Operating System Installation Directories for Windows Server 2008
Operating Systems
NOTE: The following procedures are provided as best practice guidelines for
creating operating system distribution folders compatible with DTK sample scripts.
For complete instructions on setting up an installation directory structure for an
unattended installation, see your operating system documentation.
To deploy Windows Server 2008 operating systems:
1
Create an operating system-specific directory in the root directory of the
network share. For example,
W2K8_deploy.
2
Create two directories under the
W2K8_deploy
directory:
sources
and
<
platform name
>
, for example,
PE2950
. Copy the contents of the
operating system media to
sources
.
NOTE:
The platform name should be a DTK standard name. To know
the platform name, run
TKENVSET.BAT
located in the
x:\Dell\32\Toolkit\template\scripts
directory,
and then run the
SET
command. In the
Details
section, see the
DT_PLATFORM
name.
3
Under
PE2950
, create two directories:
$OEM$
and
Out-of-Box Drivers
.
4
Copy all the drivers to
W2K8_deploy\PE2950\ Out-of-Box Drivers
. You
can copy each driver to a different sub-folder.
5
Copy
unattend.xml
from
\Toolkit\template\Configs
to
W2K8_deploy\PE2950
.
