Create an ImageUnattend.xml Setup Script – Windows Server 2008 (SP2 or R2)
Map ImageUnattend.xml Setup Script to Windows Server 2008 (SP2 or R2) Install Image
Note - If you are performing a Windows Server 2008 R2 installation, skip this procedure. Device drivers are not required at boot time for Windows Server 2008 R2 installations.
For Windows Server 2008 SP2 installations only, perform the following steps to add the appropriate PCIe SAS HBA LSI device driver (MegaRAID or MPT2) to the boot.wim image. Note that if the required PCIe SAS HBA device driver (as described in Device Driver Directory Location on Tools and Drivers Firmware DVD and Device Drivers to Add to WIM Image(s)) is not added to the boot.wim image, the Windows Server 2008 SP2 installation will fail.
For example: DVDDrive:\sources\boot.wim
For example:
For example:
mkdir C:\Mnt
For example:
cd DVDDrive:\RemoteInstall\Boot\x64\images
For example:
imagex /mountrw boot.wim 2 C:\Mnt
For example, to change to the directory containing the LSI device driver for the Sun Storage 6 Gb SAS PCIe RAID HBA option (SG-SAS-R-INT-Z), type:
cd C:\Unattend\Drivers\W2K8\lsi\1.19.2.64
For example, to add the LSI MegaRAID device driver for the Sun Storage 6 Gb SAS PCIe RAID HBA option (SG-SAS-R-INT-Z), type:
peimg /INF=*.inf C:\Mnt\Windows
For example:
imagex /unmount/commit C:\Mnt
