Create the WinPE RAM CD

1. Type the following command from the WinPE tools command prompt:

   copype.cmd x86 c:\winpe_x86

2. Open the Windows AIK command prompt.
3. Change the directory to c:\winpe_x86\iso\sources.
4. Copy winpe.win to boot.wim.

   copy C:\Program Files\Windows AIK\Tools\PETools\x86\winpe.wim c:\winpe_x86\iso\
   sources\boot.wim

5. Create the mount directory.

   md c:\winpe_x86\iso\sources\mount

6. Mount and edit the boot.wim file.

   dism /mount-wim /wimfile:c:\winpe_x86\iso\sources\boot.wim /index:1
   /mountdir:mount

7. Copy the utilities needed to perform the required tasks in WinPE.

   For imagex.exe:

   copy C:\Program Files\Windows AIK\Tools\x86\imagex.exe C:\winpe_x86\iso\
   sources\mount\windows
   copy C:\Program Files\Windows AIK\Tools|petools\x86\bootsect.exe C:\winpe_x86\
   iso\sources\mount\windows\

   You use imagex.exe as a tool when the server is booted into WinPE. You use dism.exe to build the PE disc.

8. Log in to the Oracle FTP site, and download the loaddrivers.bat file to the following directory on the local server.

   C:\winpe_x86\iso\sources\mount\

9. Copy the device diagnostic tool to the mounted image.

   copy c:\xsigos-3.0.0-whql\xsigo\xginstdev32.exe C:\winpe_x86\iso\sources\mount\

10. Create a temporary folder to save the WinPE driver package for your environment.

    For example, a PEdrivers folder.

    md C:\winpe_x86\iso\sources\mount\PEdrivers

11. Copy the WinPE driver package appropriate for your environment into the root of the mounted image.

    copy c:\xsigos-3.0.0-whql\xsigo\pedrivers\san-install\x86\*.* C:\winpe_x86\iso\
    sources\mount\PEdrivers\

12. (Optional) You can add scripting capability, which allows scripts to be executed in the WinPE environment.

    If you are adding scripting capability to the WinPE disc, do so before burning the WinPE image onto the physical medium (CD or DVD). See Add Scripting Capability to the WinPE CD.

13. Unmount the mounted WIM image.

    dism /unmount-wim /mountdir:C:\winpe_x86\iso\sources\mount
    /commit

14. Create the ISO image for the bootable disc.

    oscdimg -n -bC:\winpe_x86\etfsboot.com C:\winpe_x86\iso C:\winpe_x86\
    winpe_x86.iso

15. Burn the ISO file to a DVD or CD-ROM:

    • DVD

      dvdburn d: C:\winpe_x86\winpe_x86.iso

    • CD-ROM

      cdburn d: C:\winpe_x86\winpe_x86.iso

16. Boot into WinPE and execute the Oracle-provided loaddrivers.bat file from the root of X:.

    When the server is booted into the WinPE image, the root of x: should contains the following:

    • Xginstdev32.exe

    • loaddrivers.exe

    • PE drivers folder containing the Xsigo WinPE host drivers
