Using FOG Postinstall scripts for Windows Driver injection 2017 ed.

george1421

This thread is going to be a no nonsense tutorial rehashing other posts if yesteryear.

In this tutorial we will create 2 new FOG postinstall scripts and update the master fog postinstall script to call our new scripts.

fog.custominstall

Create the following file named fog.custominstall in the following path on the FOG server /images/postdownloadscripts.
Copy the content into that newly created file

#!/bin/bash
. /usr/share/fog/lib/funcs.sh

            handleError "Could not find hdd to use"
        fi
        getPartitions $hd
        for part in $parts; do
            umount /ntfs >/dev/null 2>&1

                        echo "Skipped"

    *)
        echo "Non-Windows Deployment"
        debugPause

Make the script executable with chmod 755 /images/postdownloadscripts/fog.custominstall

fog.copydrivers

Create the following file named fog.copydrivers in the following path on the FOG server /images/postdownloadscripts.
Copy the content into that newly created file

Make the script executable with chmod 755 /images/postdownloadscripts/fog.copydrivers

fog.updateunattend

This section is optional. You do not need to use this script if you do not need to patch or amend your unattend.xml file. If you want dynamic updates to your unattend file then you can use this section of code. Remember to uncomment the call to this script in the fog.custominstall script.

Create the following file named fog.updateunattend in the following path on the FOG server /images/postdownloadscripts.
Copy the content into that newly created file:

#!/bin/bash
hostadpwd="ADPASSWDHERRE"; #only downside to this method- this is the plain ad password
unattends=$(find /ntfs/ -iname "unattend.xml")
for unattend in $unattends; do
    [[ ! -f $unattend ]] && return
    dots "Preparing Sysprep File"
    #rm -f /ntfs/Windows/System32/sysprep/unattend.xml >/dev/null 2>&1
    #if [[ ! $? -eq 0 ]]; then
        #echo "Failed"
        #debugPause
        #handleError "Failed to remove original unattend file"
    #fi
    echo "Done"
    debugPause
    dots "Writing Computer Name to $unattend"
    sed -i "/ComputerName/s/*/$hostname/g" $unattend >/dev/null 2>&1
    if [[ ! $? -eq 0 ]]; then
        echo "Failed"
        debugPause
        handleError "Failed to update originating unattend file"
    fi
    echo "Done"
    echo "ComputerName set to $hostname in $unattend"
    debugPause
    [[ -z $addomain ]] && continue
    dots "Set PC to join the domain"
    sed -i "/<JoinWorkgroup>/d" $unattend >/dev/null 2>&1
    if [[ ! $? -eq 0 ]]; then
        echo "Failed"
        debugPause
        handleError "Failed to remove the Workgroup setter"
    fi
    sed -i \

        -e "s|<JoinDomain></JoinDomain>|<JoinDomain>${addomain}</JoinDomain>|g" $unattend >/dev/null 2>&1
    if [[ ! $? -eq 0 ]]; then
        echo "Failed"
        debugPause
        handleError "Failed to update user, pass, ou, and domain setter"
    fi
    echo "Done"
    debugPause
done

Save and exit your text editor.
Make the script executable with chmod 755 /images/postdownloadscripts/fog.updateunattend

fog.postdownload

The last bit of magic we need to do is update the FOG supplied script called fog.postdownload to call our custom script fog.custominstall

Insert at the bottom of the fog.postdownload script this line.

. ${postdownpath}/fog.custominstall

Save and exit your text editor.

Driver repository structure

For this process to work you must setup your driver library on the fog server in a certain fashion.

On your fog server create the drivers directory under the images directory with:
md /images/drivers
Below the /images/drivers directory you will create a directory per machine name (that exactly matches what comes from smbios using this command for Dell computers dmidecode -s system-product-name
Hint: You can also find the system product name by reviewing the inventoried system in the FOG WebGui.

The structure should be built to match the variables used in the fog.drivers script.

/images
├─/drivers
  ├─$machine
      ├─$osn
        └─$arch

or translated into real values (note that the space has been removed for “Optiplex 7040” to this Optiplex7040. There is a clean up line above that removes spaces in the product name. While linux supports spaces in path names (like Windows) its bad practice to use them because some utilities will see the space as a parameter delimiter.

/images
├─/drivers
  ├─Optiplex7040
      ├─win7
        └─x86
        └─x64
      ├─win10
        └─x64
  ├─Optiplex7050
...

Unattend.xml

For WIN10 you must update the unattend.xml file to include this section. This is an example for the amd64 arch.

    <settings pass="offlineServicing">
        <component name="Microsoft-Windows-PnpCustomizationsNonWinPE" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
            <DriverPaths>
                <PathAndCredentials wcm:action="add" wcm:keyValue="1">
                    <Path>C:\Drivers</Path>
                </PathAndCredentials>
            </DriverPaths>
        </component>
    </settings>

Update: With the later releases of Win10 post 1703, the offline servicing section doesn’t seem to load the drivers. As a fix, add the following lines to your setupcomplete.cmd batch file to load the drivers at the end of the OSD process.

pnputil.exe /add-driver "C:\Drivers\*.inf" /subdirs /install
pnputil.exe /add-driver "C:\Drivers\*.inf" /subdirs /install
pnputil.exe /add-driver "C:\Drivers\*.inf" /subdirs /install

Running pnputil 2 times seems to be the sweet spot to capture all of the hardware devices, because some hardware is hidden behind other hardware drivers (such as USB3 and PCI hardware)

Update: if you want to use the pnputil.exe command with versions of windows before Win10 you will need to use this command instead, since the older versions of pnputil do not support the /subdir switch.

forfiles /p "C:\Drivers" /s /m *.inf /c “cmd /c pnputil -a @Path”
forfiles /p "C:\Drivers" /s /m *.inf /c “cmd /c pnputil -a @Path”
forfiles /p "C:\Drivers" /s /m *.inf /c “cmd /c pnputil -a @Path”
