[quote=“emacwizguy, post: 3473, member: 1130”]Hey, what did you use to create your winpe? I just tried Bartpe compiler and I get a chkdsk /r bsod at startup.[/quote]
I didn’t use BartPE. I used the basic guide here, [url]http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc709665(v=ws.10).aspx[/url] skipping steps 3 and 4 because I was interested in just a vanilla flavor of WinPE. I’ve heard that there are lots of issues trying to get BartPE to PXE boot using FOG.
What I do for programs is store portable apps/utility programs (like the kind that UBCD would offer) on a shared network drive on one of my servers, then just run “net use” to the share once WinPE is finished loading.
In my opinion, this does two things: 1. It keeps the size of the ISO down so that it’s faster loading time 2. this allows me to add more programs without having to remake the iso.
I’ve been able to run Scans with portable AV apps, run defrags, high quality chkdsk programs, bios updates, regedits, and am now working on integrating Windows Installers (for those times when an FOG image isn’t available) into this process.
