Deploying Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Edition x86 locally

This procedure provides an example of how to create a local deployment of Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Edition x86.

Note: If the target system contains a RAID controller, RAID will be configured as part of the installation.
  1. In a command prompt window, enter CD to change to the :\sgshare\sgdeploy\SGTKWinPE directory.
  2. Create the Windows installation image by running SGTKWinPE.cmd, using the Win2008_x86_EE.ini file provided by the Toolkit as shown in:SGTKWinPE.cmd ScenarioINIs\Local\Win2008_x86_EE.ini
    The following ISO image is created: sgdeploy\WinPE_ScenarioOutputs\Local_Win2008_x86_EE\WinPE_x86.iso. The media creation software is started and creates bootable media from the image.
  3. Boot the target system from the bootable media, and follow the on-screen prompts to complete the deployment.
