Windows server2008 Sysprep

Dear all,

I am testing a deplyement using Sysprer of a Windows Server 2008 R2.

For that I have download the WAIK and use the Windows System Image manager to create my unattended answer file. So far so good.

Then as describe in different post I could reade I need to copy that xml file under the SYSPREP folder of my reference machine and rename it as sysprep.xml.

Then next step I need to create the WinPe boot disk. For tha I have run the following command :

Where arch can be x86, amd64,or ia64 and destination is a path to a local directory, for example, type:

Copype.cmd amd64 C:\WinPE_amd64 ( I use this command as my system is for 64 bits)

By doing so it generate following folders under the WinPe_amd64 :

- fwfiles
- media

- mount

IN different post I read it is refer to a ISO folder but it is not generated.

Did I do something wrong ?

Please not that I am using the WAIK kit for Windows 8. Can it be use for Server 2008 ?

regards

serge
