Utilizing Postscripts (Rename, JoinDomain, Drivers, Snapins)

[Lee Rowlett]

remove/hash these lines:

mkdir /fog &>/dev/null
mount -o nolock,proto=tcp $storageip:/fog/ /fog
dots “Mounting Device”;

[Mikael]

yeah, I was using the already mounted images folder for my drivers. I see now that those other lines are not in use either, thanks

[gwhitfield]

I’m attempting to use this in our image deployment to push drivers and am having some trouble that is hopefully not difficult to overcome, I’m just not real script savvy. I have placed my drivers in the /images/Drivers folder and my fog.postdownload is as follows:

#!/bin/sh
if [ $osid == "5" -o $osid == "6" -o $osid == "7" ]; then #only handling Win7/8/8.1
    clearScreen;
    mkdir /ntfs &>/dev/null
    ntfs-3g -o force,rw $part /ntfs
    # mkdir /fog &>/dev/null
    # mount -o nolock,proto=tcp $storageip:/fog/ /fog 
    # dots "Mounting Device";
    if [ "$?" = "0" ]; then
        echo "Done";
        . ${postdownpath}fog.drivers 
      # . ${postdownpath}fog.ad 
      # . ${postdownpath}fog.snapins
        umount /ntfs; # unmount when all is done :-)
    else
        echo "Failed To Mount Device";
        sleep 30;
    fi
fi

The computer responds with :

ntfs-3g: No mountpoint is specified

gives lots of usage instructions and options then

Failed to mount device

then restarts after about 30 seconds.

My fog.drivers file is as follows:

#!/bin/sh
 
ceol=`tput el`;
machine=`dmidecode -s system-product-name`; # Gets machine model
machine="${machine%"${machine##*[![:space:]]}"}" #Removes Trailing Space

# cabextract -d /ntfs/Windows/DRV "/images/Drivers/$osn/${machine}"/*.CAB &>/dev/null;
 
#this next bit adds driver location on pc to devicepath in registry (so sysprep uses it to reference)
# remember to make devicepath= match the path you've used locally
#also do not remove %SystemRoot%\inf
#and to add more locations just use ; in between each location

echo -e "\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b\b${ceol}Done"; # this just removes "In Progress and replaces it with done :-)"

Would you be able to assist?

Hi Gregg,

What version of fog are you using?

[gwhitfield]

@Lee-Rowlett Sorry,trunk version 7709 i believe

[Lee Rowlett]

@gwhitfield as you’re using /images as your driver location you do not need to mount a share as it’s already mounted, so /fog mount is irrelevant to you. as you’re only doing one arch or having both drivers on the image, i’m assuming as you commented it out, make sure your folder layout for drivers matches this for example a Windows 7 build OptiPlex 7010 would be:
“/images/Drivers/Win7/OptiPlex 7010” and all your drivers for the 7010 would be within that folder

Try these and let me know how you get on

@Lee-Rowlett Seems like I’m very close. The image task completes and I get the following just before the machine restarts. Unfortunately no drivers are copied so the image fails to bootup since there’s no drivers in it:

/images/postdownloadscripts/fog.postdownload: line 2: syntax error near unexpected token '$' in\r''

'images/postdownloadscripts/fog.postdownload: line 2: 'case $osid in

[Lee Rowlett]

can you send me both your fog.postdownload and fog.drivers file and i’ll take a look - (i mean physically send, not paste the code on here :-))

[gwhitfield]

@Lee-Rowlett Sure, here’s the goods:

@Lee-Rowlett 1_1464287927234_fog.postdownload 0_1464287927232_fog.drivers

[gwhitfield]

@Lee-Rowlett Success!! Evidently my fog.postdownload and fog.drivers files got corrupted by editing in Notepad. Thank you for sending me a clean version! Working like a champ. Also for purpose of posterity or future users, the name of the folder for each individual hardware type needs to exactly match the spelling and case of the “System Product” field in the “Inventory” for that machine (or type of machine):

[Greg Plamondon]

@Lee-Rowlett

I gotten this to make the edits to the unattend.xml but it still doesnt join the domain. Do you have a Windows10 Unattend.xml that i can compare where I went wrong?

[Lee Rowlett]

@Greg-Plamondon where are you calling the unattend.xml from and how are u verifying the unattend.xml is beinf edited correctly? Also are is it x86 or x64?

[Tom Elliott]

@Lee-Rowlett I remoted in and took a look. Cleaned up the scripts a lot, with Gregs help (-- @Greg-Plamondon I grabbed some credit but it still mostly goes to you --). I asked Greg to post the finished scripts after generalizing them so his environment is safe. Hopefully you will like them, and others as well.

[Greg Plamondon]

@Lee-Rowlett The unattend.xml is in the C:\Windows\Panther directory. I removed the option from my setupcomplete.cmd that deletes the unattend.xml, so after it boots I can take a look at it and the edits were made to it. Should I be editing the C:\Windows\Sytstems32\Sysprep\unattend.xml instead of the Windows\Panther ?

[george1421]

@Greg-Plamondon it should be in one or the other place. Panther is checked first. When you sysprep’d where did you tell sysprep to look for the file?

[Greg Plamondon]

@Lee-Rowlett Thanks for the base scripts and ideas behind them.
@Tom-Elliott Thanks for helping me adjusting them for my needs.
@Junkhacker Thanks for the fog log script, you dont know how many time I have forgotten to delete the damn fog.log

For some reason Lenovo doesn’t play like most PC manufactures. I had to use the dmidecode variable of system-version to populate what the actual model of the PC was, with system-product-name it was returning the numerical machine type or serial number?

i didnt i just ran sysprep.exe /oobe /generalize /reboot

[george1421]

@Greg-Plamondon Then you must ensure that unattend.xml must be in panther or sysprep folder. Typically its good practice to specifically call out the direct path to unattend.xml file.

BTW, great scripts!! thanks for posting them.

Hi,

there is no need for having unattend.xml in a Special Directory, use /unattend:[FQPath] to Point Panther to the file.
