Special Information

Windows Preinstallation Environment (aka Windows PE, WinPE 1.0) is a lightweight version of Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 that is used for the deployment of workstations and servers.

It is intended as a 32-bit replacement for MS-DOS during the installation phase of Windows, and can be booted via PXE, CD-ROM, USB flash drive, or hard disk.

WinPE allows you to install any version of windows using a Windows Share (or SAMBA) of your Windows Installation files.

Installation Instructions

You can add up to 3 different WinPEs without editing the menu conf files.

Just replace 'a' with 'b' or 'c' and 'winna' with 'winnb' or 'winnc' accordingly.

First we will have to make the boot loaders - unfortunately we can't distribute these files without violating Microsoft Legal Policy so you'll have to make them yourself.

- Copy startrom.n1_  , ntdetect.com , setupldr.ex_ to /tftpboot from the Windows Server 2003 SP1  - i386 folder.

- Expand startrom.n1_ startrom.0

- Open startrom.0 in an HEX editor (HxD for example)

- Replace 'ntldr' with 'win\a' at: 5A57,5A82,5F8B, (3 times - CASE SENSITIVE!)

- Move startrom.0 to /tftpboot/er/plugins/winna/

- Expand setupldr.ex_ a

- Open a in an HEX editor (HxD for example)

- Replace 'winnt.sif' with 'win\a.sif' at: 254E6, 254F2, 255C2, 2563E, 257FE, 2580A, 3C7AB, 3C7Cf, 3C7F2 (9 times - CASE SENSITIVE!)

- Move a to /tftpboot/win/
