This is my first attempt at using WinPE, and so far no luck. I am
getting the following error message when I try to boot from my CD:
"Please insert the disk labeled Windows XP Professional CD-ROM into
Drive A:
* Press ENTER when ready"
So far, I have done the following:
Copy the contents of my Windows XP CD i386 directory to c:\
Copy the contents of my sp2 files
Slipstreamed sp2 into the Windows XP i386 directory using the
'/integrate' switch
Copy the WinPE folder (and x86 subfolder) to a new folder (named
c:\build_x86)
NB I am using WinPE 2005, but from an extracted download, not a
bootable CD.
I have followed the instructions in the winpe.chm file, ie run the
following command:
c:\build_x86\winpe\mkimg.cmd c:\ c:\pe_image /wmi /nowf
This scrolled all the files up my screen and reported that it
successfully copied 1304 out of 1304 files.
I then ran the following command (after creating an 'iso' folder on the
c-drive):
'c:\build_x86\winpe\oscdimg.exe -bc:\build_x86\winpe\etfsboot.com -n
c:\pe_img c:\iso\pe_img.iso'
This successfully created an iso image, and I copied this iso file onto
a machine with a CD-Writer, which I have successfully burnt to a CD-RW
using Nero6.6.
When I try to boot from it (BIOS is set to CD first in start order), I
press a key at the appropriate time, it says Setup is inspecting
hardware configuration, then it says Starting WIndows PreINstallation
Environment, with a bar going across down the bottom, then almost
immediately I get the error message.
It appears that I dp have a bootable WinPE CD, but it is missing
something(s).
Does anyone have any ideas??
