Running Deployment Scripts Using DTK and Microsoft Windows PE
81
Here,
ETFSBOOT.COM
(boot sector file) is a part of the OPK tools you
copied in
\WinPE_OPKTools
directory. These files make the Windows PE
CD bootable. For example, if the final target folder for storing ISO image is
C:\FINALBUILD
, and your Windows PE file set is in
<DellWinPEBuild>
,
the following command line creates a bootable ISO image called
Dellx86winpe.iso
:
C:\WINPE_OPKTOOLS\OSCDIMG -bETFSBOOT.COM -n
c:\DELLWINPEBUILD
C:\FINALBUILD\Dellx86winpe.iso
After you create an ISO image, you can use any CD burning software to burn
the image onto a CD. After burning the ISO image, ensure that it boots from
the CD drive for all the supported Dell systems you plan to deploy. After it
boots, you are advised to test all the tools and scripts on these systems to
ensure that the integration went well and there are no issues with hardware
components not being recognized.
CD-Based Local Deployment
You are now ready to use your bootable CD to call the deployment
components from the directory structure on the CD:
1
Boot the target system with the bootable deployment CD.
2
Execute the master batch file, which calls individual task scripts and
utilities from the CD to complete the deployment process.

CD-Based Local Deployment With Networking Enabled
You can also use your bootable CD to call the deployment components from
the directory structure on the CD and the remaining components from the
network share:
1
Boot the target system with the bootable deployment CD.
2
Execute the master batch file, which calls individual task scripts and
utilities from the network share to complete the deployment process.
