Looking to create a Windows answer file (unattend.xml) to go with a Windows 10 install.
How do I get device drivers be available during the windowsPE stage? I am trying to avoid modifying the Windows 10 .iso and placing the files inside there.
I understand iVentoy provides a HTTP server to serve files which I can get to work when sending PowerShell scripts during the Windows auditUser and auditSystem phases.
The problem I am facing here is that prior to configuring the drive and partitions, there needs to be specific Intel drivers to be installed before formatting and partitioning of the drives can be performed during the Windows install. I figure I am able to use the auto-injection feature of iVentoy to get the files into the X:\ boot drive however how am I able to automatically get these drivers to be installed?
I have an Intel NUC that refuses to boot iVentoy unless the boot menu resolution is set to 800x600. However, if I set the resolution that low, then every WinPE .iso I boot has a garbled display after the Windows boot logo, so I still can't get it to work. When I try higher resolutions I get errors like attached. Any ideas?
I used the guide on how to install this using windows and all methods in "When Ventoy2Disk.exe Failed To Install" worked except the VM which just stagnated on the loading screen. However when I installed the program to install ventoy gpt or mbr it always failed to install to my 1tb usb 3 generic flash drive gpt or mbr
I think this is a problem with Windows 10 ISOs.
httpdrive cant mount iso to drive y: - because of the problem with the ip configuration.
The problem does not exist on Windows 11 isos.
The iVentoy system can be reached via ping and the manual mounting of the ISO works in the recovery console of Windows Setup. I also can access drive y:
X:\windows\System32\ventoy\httpdisk.exe /mount 0 http://192.168.50.2:16000/riso/id/13.iso /cd Y:
I it possible to change your script for this configuration to wait some more time for configuration?
I already tried it with WinInjection but without solution.
IPv4-Adresse . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.50.82(Vorläufig) or IPv4-address . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.50.82(Tentative)
Says that a conflict check is currently being running and that probably takes too long for your script (no wait times)
(see last entrys in the log)
Here is the log file (its a german system)
