Create an ImageUnattend.xml Setup Script – Windows Server 2008 (SP2 or R2)
Add Device Driver(s) to Boot WIM – Windows Server 2008 SP2 Only
Follow the steps in this procedure to map the ImageUnattend.xml Setup Script (created in an earlier procedure in this section) to the Windows Server 2008 (SP2 or R2) install.wim.
Note that if no image groups exist, create a new image group named Windows Server 2008 SP2 or Windows Server 2008 R2 and click Next.
For example:
For example, the Windows Server 2008 SP2 Datacenter (x64) edition WIM image would be located at:
cd Drive:\RemoteInstall\images\Windows Server 2008 SP2
mkdir install
Note - Selecting the defaults when importing the install image for Windows Server 2008 (SP2 or R2) will create an installation WIM file called install.wim.
For example:
cd install
mkdir Unattend
For example:
cd Unattend
copy C:\Unattend\Drivers\{W2K8|W2k8R2}\Catalogs\ImageUnattend.xml
Click Start-->All Programs-->Windows Deployment Services.
Drive:\RemoteInstall\images\{W2K8|W2K8R2}\install\Unattend\ImageUnattend.xml
The Windows Server 2008 (SP2 or R2) WIM image is ready to be installed using the Windows Deployment Services.
Install Windows Server 2008 (SP2 or R2) Using PXE Network Boot.
