Multiple drivers can also be removed on one command line. Removing a boot-critical driver package can make the offline Windows image unbootable. All drivers in the directory and subdirectories that are referenced in the answer file are added to the image.
You should manage the answer file and these directories carefully to address concerns about increasing the size of the image with unnecessary driver packages. If you need drivers for Windows PE to see the local hard disk drive or a network, you must use the windowsPE configuration pass of an answer file to add drivers to the Windows PE driver store and to reflect boot-critical drivers required by Windows PE. See Configure components and settings in an answer file for information on how to modify an answer file.
For each path in Microsoft-Windows-PnpCustomizationsNonWinPE , specify the path to the device driver and the credentials that are used to access the file, if the file is on a network share. When you include multiple device driver paths by adding multiple PathAndCredentials list items, you must increment the value of Key for each path. For example, you can add two separate driver paths where the value of Key for the first path is equal to 1 and the value of Key for the second path is equal to 2.
Device Drivers and Deployment Overview. Sometimes it is necessary to manually inject drivers into the Boot. Additionally, d rivers manually injected into Boot. This difference can sometimes fix issues with specific docks or USB dongles. See the following diagram for a detailed walkthrough:.
However, the same steps can be ran on the 32bit Boot. Skip to Main Content. Home All Products Forum Groups. Getting Started. Expand search. This log is on the computer that runs the Configuration Manager console. Review this log file to verify the values for the task sequence variables. For example, when an application is run within WinPE and needs to write temporary files, WinPE redirects the files to the scratch space in memory to simulate the presence of a hard disk.
Select Enable command support testing only to open a command prompt by using the F8 key while the boot image is deployed. This option is useful for troubleshooting while you're testing your deployment.
Using this setting in a production deployment isn't advised because of security concerns. Set default keyboard layout in WinPE : Configure the default keyboard layout for a boot image. If you select a language other than en-us, Configuration Manager still includes en-us in the available input locales.
On the device, the initial keyboard layout is the selected locale, but the user can switch the device to en-us if needed. The Components list shows additional items that are added to this boot image.
To add more components, select the gold asterisk. To remove a component, select it from the list, and then select the red X. For more information about adding languages, see Configure multiple languages. To change the source file of the boot image, set Image path and Image index. To create a schedule for when the site updates the boot image, select Update distribution points on a schedule. If you don't want the content of this package to age out of the client cache to make room for other content, select Persist content in client cache.
To specify that the site only distributes changed files when it updates the boot image package on the distribution point, select Enable binary differential replication BDR. This setting minimizes the network traffic between sites. BDR is especially useful when the boot image package is large and the changes are relatively small. On the Data Access tab, you can configure package share settings. If needed in your environment, set the option to Copy the content in this package to a package share on distribution points.
You then have the additional option to Use a custom name for the package share and specify the custom Share name. Additional disk space is required on distribution points when you enable this option. It applies to all distribution points that receive this boot image.
In the Distribution priority list, specify the priority level. Configuration Manager uses this priority list when the site distributes multiple packages to the same distribution point. If you want to enable on-demand content distribution to preferred distribution points, select Enable for on-demand distribution. When you enable this setting, if a client requests the content for the package and the content isn't available on any distribution points, then the management point distributes the content.
For more information, see On-demand content distribution. To specify how you want the site to distribute the boot image to distribution points that are enabled for prestaged content, set the Prestaged distribution point settings. For more information about prestaged content, see Prestage content. On the Content Locations tab, select the distribution point or distribution point group, and use the following actions:.
Validate : Check the integrity of the boot image package on the selected distribution point or distribution point group. Redistribute : Distribute the boot image to the selected distribution point or distribution point group again.
Remove : Delete the boot image from the selected distribution point or distribution point group. You can also remove Flash anytime by deploying the update in KB available on the Catalog between steps 20 and The main operating system file install. Or, it might be that all editions need an update. Further, ensure that languages are installed before Features on Demand, and the latest cumulative update is always applied last. You don't have to add more languages and features to the image to accomplish the updates, but it's an opportunity to customize the image with more languages, Optional Components, and Features on Demand beyond what is in your starting image.
To do this, it's important to make these changes in the correct order: first apply servicing stack updates, followed by language additions, then by feature additions, and finally the latest cumulative update.
The provided sample script installs a second language in this case Japanese ja-JP. Since this language is backed by an lp. Japanese is added to both the main operating system and to the recovery environment to allow the user to see the recovery screens in Japanese.
This includes adding localized versions of the packages currently installed in the recovery image. Optional Components, along with the.
NET feature, can be installed offline, however doing so creates pending operations that require the device to restart. As a result, the call to perform image cleanup would fail. There are two options to avoid this. One option is to skip the image cleanup step, though that will result in a larger install. Another option is to install the. NET and Optional Components in a step after cleanup but before export.
This is the option in the sample script. By doing this, you will have to start with the original install. These examples are for illustration only, and therefore lack error handling. The script assumes that the following packages are stored locally in this folder structure:. The script starts by declaring global variables and creating folders to use for mounting images. Also, it will provide a comparison of old versus new media to evaluate changes.
