wimboot: WinPE cannot find \Boot\BCD

[mpiechotka]

boot.wim got from Win 7 install disk works but it does not list sanhook'ed disk. boot.wim got from ADK (Windows Assessment and Deployment Toolkit) 8.1 cannot find \Boot\BCD.

I'll update rest soon when I boot the machine from Win 7 install disk

Or does Winpe not start at all? if so what does happen?

Where does the boot.wim come from, and what (if any) are the modifications to it?


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:

Code:

wpeinit
wpeutil WaitForNetwork
net start dnscache

ipconfig /all

to make sure everything is up in regards to network and see what the result is.
