Have you ever wished you could get the “Windows Recovery Console” running for that one maintenance procedure or program you want to use, without having to remember where you’ve forgotten the CD? HTG explains how to boot WinPE from PXE. Photo Credit: via Windows Pre-execution environment (WinPE) is the version of windows that most people know as the one that boots off of the install CD. Over the years, entire projects have been created to give one the ability to have a sort of “” environment like many Linux distros. In this guide, we will have the windows PE from the install CD boot from PXE just so we can use it to run the Dell BIOS update utility. You are encouraged to continue the exploration of this bottomless pit of geek goodness.

Overview We’ve shown you what PXE is and how you can, today we will be adding yet another extension to FOG. Generally today’s procedure will be:. Update PXElinux to v5.01 or higher, if not already installed. Add the wimboot module. Copy the WIM image and supporting files from the windows install CD. Add the menu entry. Use the booted WinPE to get a working “Windows recovery console”.

We are going to do the above, because going the “regular” Windows Automated Installation Kit (WAIK) way forces you, at best, to install it on your machine and go through a not so straightforward process to mangle the WIM file and its support files into their WDS/RIS form. While Linux alternatives do exists, like the (which is the PXE server I used before FOG came along), using this way you simply replace some files on the PXE server once (which you probably would have eventually anyhow) and copy the unaltered WIM file and support files directly from the Windows CD into the PXE server. The one thing to note, is that while it will look like you can start the windows install procedure this way, you actually can’t complete it, and making that possible is beyond the scope of this guide. Lets get cracking:) Update PXElinux to V5.01 As of the time of this writing, the version of Syslinux in the Ubuntu repository is still 4.05. I’m guessing this is because the Syslinux team decided to shake things up with the V5 branch and have their COM32 modules work (now based on ELF) and changed the “core” to require a library (ldlinux.c32) for anything beyond “pure boot”.

This makes it very possible to encounter breakage, for anyone who’s used to the “old way”. Don’t fret, we will download the required files manually and make it so your FOG installation doesn’t loose a beat. We will be using version 5.01 as it is the latest stable release from the V5 branch at the time of this writing and it is the one on which the this specific procedure work.

Note: Another reason that the latest version isn’t part of the Ubuntu repository yet (IMHO), is that at least on. Other hypervisors like VMware, Hyper-V & VirtualBox, as well as physical machines are just fine with the new version. If the note above doesn’t affect you, proceed.
