Preparing the Image on the Local Hard Drive
NOTE:
Prior to creating the disk image when using KMDF VBD driver version 3.1 and above, it is necessary to
c h a n g e t h e l o a d o r d e r o f t h e w d f 0 1 0 0 0 . s y s d r i v e r . I n t h e r e g i s t r y a t
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Wdf0100, modify the registry entry by changing
Group

When the software initiator mode operating system installation is used, the Windows operating system install must be
performed in two stages. In the first stage, the OS is installed to a local hard drive on the system. In the second stage after
the OS has been completely installed, an image of the local drive must be transferred to the iSCSI target for use in
subsequent boots.
Initial Windows Install
Before beginning, verify that the desired version of Windows supports iSCSI boot. Proceed to install Windows to a local hard
drive. When partitioning the local hard drive, make sure that the Windows boot drive (normally C:) is partitioned to a size less
than or equal to the size of the iSCSI target to be used. Depending on the method used to copy an image of the local hard
drive to the iSCSI target, this may or may not be an actual requirement. Proceed to install Windows with the desired options.
1.
Install Windows 2003 32-bit or Windows 2003 64-bit OS on the local hard drive.
2.
Install the Broadcom drivers using the Setup installer.
NOTE:
Do not install the drivers through Windows Plug-and-Play (PnP). Failure to install the drivers through the
Setup installer might blue screen your system.
3.
Install Microsoft iSCSI Software Initiator with integrated software boot support (version 2.06 or later). To download from
Microsoft, go to
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=12cb3c1a-15d6-4585-b385-
and locate the direct link for your system on the page’s “Overview” section.
