Image Deployment tool. Skipping this step allows future updates to be added to
your image by simply remounting
boot.wim
and copying the update files to the
correct directories.

final image:
peimg /prep c:\winpe_x86\mount\Windows
7
Commit the changes to the original image file (
Winpe.wim
) using the
ImageX /unmount
option with the
/commit
option:
imagex /unmount c:\winpe_x86\mount /commit
8
Replace the default
Boot.wim
in the
\winpe_x86\ISO
directory
with your new customized image. The image must be called
Boot.wim
.
CAUTION:
When a UFD device is formatted, all files on the device are erased.
9
Prepare the UFD device. Use Diskpart to format the UFD with a Windows
Vista or Windows PE environment.
a
Within a Windows Vista operating system or Windows PE session,
insert your UFD device.
b
Format the entire UFD as a single FAT32 drive. The following
example assumes the UFD is
disk 1
. Open a command window and
enter the following:
diskpart
select disk 1
clean
create partition primary size=<size of device>
select partition 1
active
format fs=fat32
assign
exit
