Install Guide
11. On the target system, to connect the target system to the shared folder WinClient_deploy, run the following command: net
use z: \\<IP address of the source system>\WinClient_deploy /USER:<user name>
Password:<password>
12. Navigate to \Toolkit\Template\Congs.
13. From \Toolkit\Template\Congs, copy UnattendClient.xml to z:\PR7920.
NOTE: The unattendClient.xml le is for Windows client operating system (64–bit) in BIOS mode and
unattendClient_ue.xml is for Windows client operating system (64–bit) in UEFI mode.
14. On the source system, navigate to PR7920.
15. In unattendClient.xml, check the value of DiskId in the tags ImageInstall and DiskConguration. The value should be zero. If
the value is not zero, set it to zero.
16. On the target system, navigate to \Toolkit\template\scripts and run TKENVSET.BAT to set the DTK paths and options.
17. Set the environment variable DT_DRIVE=Z:.
18. Run the WINCLIENTINST.BAT script to install the required version of Windows client operating system.
19. Select the required operating system. The operating system installation starts and goes on unattended.
After the operating system is installed, the Set Up Windows screen is displayed.
Deployment prerequisites for embedded Linux
For Linux, ensure that you have the following tools, software, and information:
• Advanced knowledge of Linux and Linux scripting (bash), Linux networking, installing and working with RPM Package Managers
(RPMs), and creating and modifying loop le systems.
• Any third party deployment system or tool, such as Yum.
• A workstation with the following capabilities:
– A writable media drive
– Network access
• A target system with a media drive, if performing a local deployment.
• A target system with a media drive and network access, if performing a network deployment.
• All DTK utilities, sample scripts, sample conguration les, and RPM packages.
• All operating system RPM packages that DTK RPMs require.
NOTE: Tools such as Yellowdog Updater Modied (YUM), Yet Another Setup Tool (YAST), and Advanced Packaging
Tool (APT) can be used to manage RPM dependency issues.
• All other utilities and les necessary to perform the deployment, including all required Linux drivers, operating system drivers, and
the Dell utility partition le.
• Systems Management Tools and Documentation DVD.
• Your operating system software and documentation.
• An optimally congured source system with network access.
NOTE: You can download the latest drivers from support.dell.com.
NOTE: When the inbox drivers for PERC controllers and NIC cards are not available, provide the required drivers using
driver disk method.
Preparing embedded Linux environment for deployment
If you are using the embedded Linux environment:
1. Obtain the DTK Linux ISO image, which is a self-contained bootable ISO image.
2. Use and customize the sample scripts as per your requirements.
3. Set up a Source System by using the the Dell Systems Management Tools and Documentation DVD (to install your operating
system) and the
Systems Service and Diagnostics Tools (to load drivers).
