Modifying Sysprep

G

Gary

I clean a machine and get it all setup. I have modified
my sysprep.inf file to do everything I need it to and make
sure the [SysprepMassStorage] contains the correct IDE
controller. I run sysprep, ghost the image, and all is
well.

Down the road, I decide to use this image for a different
PC with a different IDE controller. So I run PNPIDS and
determine the correct line to add under the
[SysprepMassStorage] section of my sysprep.inf file inside
my image. Problem is that the image is an NTFS image so
you can't edit any of the files in the image with Ghost
Explorer.

I tried Ghosting the image to this other PC and then I
thought I could boot using NTFSDOS and replace the
sysprep.inf file with a modified one but there is no way
that I know of to pass credentials in DOS, so I cannot get
access to overwrite or edit the existing sysprep.inf.

I don't want FAT32 images, so how are you supposed to be
able to keep updating the old sysprep.inf as machines come
out with different IDE controllers?

Thanks,

Try adding this registry information to your image before you run sysprep, I
had the same type of dilemna, i have about 4 dif models of dells, id take an
image of one model, restore it to another and get a blue screen saying
Inaccessible_boot_device. I got this from this article
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;822052
FYI, I do not have the MassStorageDrivers section in my sysprep.inf and it
seems to work fine. I do a "sysprep -bmsd" when I sysprep the machine. Hope
this helps

Hi

Why don't you update the MassStorage section in your sysprep.inf file and
reimage ?

Thanks,

I do not have the MassStorageDrivers section in my
sysprep.inf either and I don't beieve you need it unless
you are going to use the image on a machine that has a
special IDE controller.

The bmsd switch is only going to add all of the PNPIDs
that come with Windows to the SysprepMassStorage section
of the sysprep.inf file which can be done manually just as
easy. The problem I have is when you want to use that
same image with a machine that has a PNPID other than what
comes with Windows, you are stuck.

What would be slick is if you could some how edit or
replace the sysprep.inf file inside the image. Ghost
Explorer allows this, but only if the image is from a
partition that was not NTFS. So I can't use NTFS because
I might need the ability to change 1 file in the image
later on. Seems rediculous to me.

I clean a machine and get it all setup. I have modified
my sysprep.inf file to do everything I need it to and make
sure the [SysprepMassStorage] contains the correct IDE
controller. I run sysprep, ghost the image, and all is
well.

Down the road, I decide to use this image for a different
PC with a different IDE controller. So I run PNPIDS and
determine the correct line to add under the
[SysprepMassStorage] section of my sysprep.inf file inside
my image. Problem is that the image is an NTFS image so
you can't edit any of the files in the image with Ghost
Explorer.

I tried Ghosting the image to this other PC and then I
thought I could boot using NTFSDOS and replace the
sysprep.inf file with a modified one but there is no way
that I know of to pass credentials in DOS, so I cannot get
access to overwrite or edit the existing sysprep.inf.

I don't want FAT32 images, so how are you supposed to be
able to keep updating the old sysprep.inf as machines come
out with different IDE controllers?

Thanks,

Hi

Why don't you update the MassStorage section in your sysprep.inf file and
reimage ?

Thanks,

I do not have the MassStorageDrivers section in my
sysprep.inf either and I don't beieve you need it unless
you are going to use the image on a machine that has a
special IDE controller.

The bmsd switch is only going to add all of the PNPIDs
that come with Windows to the SysprepMassStorage section
of the sysprep.inf file which can be done manually just as
easy. The problem I have is when you want to use that
same image with a machine that has a PNPID other than what
comes with Windows, you are stuck.

What would be slick is if you could some how edit or
replace the sysprep.inf file inside the image. Ghost
Explorer allows this, but only if the image is from a
partition that was not NTFS. So I can't use NTFS because
I might need the ability to change 1 file in the image
later on. Seems rediculous to me.

before
you run sysprep, I
had the same type of dilemna, i have about 4 dif models of dells, id take an
image of one model, restore it to another and get a blue screen saying
Inaccessible_boot_device. I got this from this article
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en- us;822052
FYI, I do not have the MassStorageDrivers section in my sysprep.inf and it
seems to work fine. I do a "sysprep -bmsd" when I

this helps
