I'd like to install Windows 7 on iSCSI. However when I boot Windows PE (with network drivers) the iSCSI disk is not there. I don't have control over DHCP server so I cannot push that way. How should I do it?

Here is part of my reply to your other thread (which you never answered to)
So check the above commands, and then describe your output from ipconfig
Also which nic is in the box? (PCI Vendor and Device id)
And also post the iPXE script that you are using to setup the san device and then boot wimboot

My guess is that you have simply not initialized the network in winpe, or that you are missing network drivers, Which nic are you using in the test machine?
From another post of mine: http://forum.ipxe.org/showthread.php?tid...2#pid13472
use this inside winpe:
to make sure everything is up in regards to network and see what the result is.Code:
wpeinit
wpeutil WaitForNetwork
net start dnscache
ipconfig /all

Sorry. I added NIC drivers (it's Intel on-board chip). I made a mistake by trying to list disks by diskmgmt instead of just running setup. I feel stupid.

So everything is now working? If so great to hear that!
If not, result from ipconfig (and information about actuall nic in machine) is still missing.
