Ok, for this you can take winpe3. This is smaller (~140MB), but boots slower. Additionally you have to inject iscsi-funcionality, which isnt on winpe3 by default. At WinPE4 there is iscsi and powershell built in by default. Btw, winpe4 is able to install win7/2008r2, too.

Yep. Dont forget to include iscsi in your winpe3! Maybe you can get a problem with the dvd-filesystem. I wasnt able to use a winxp-cd as iscsi-disk directly because of the lack of iso9660-support of my winpe-iscsi-driver, but maybe you have more luck with win8-dvd. Otherwise you can try bulding a virtual ntfs device and put the win8-dvd files onto it. Be sure that the c: drive exists and the dvd-drive is _after_ your existing dvd-drive (if there exists one). Good luck! Oliver Regards, Oliver _______________________________________________ ipxe-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ipxe.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/ipxe-devel
