Pre taking image

Post Deploy Install Script

After the install, the script located in %WINDIR%\Setup\Scripts\SetupComplete.cmd is called. This must be updated before the image is taken and before sysprep.

Sysprep

Sysprep is run before the image is taken. This will generalise the image and allow it to generate unique SIDs upon each installation.

The custom deploy.xml file must be called when calling sysprep before taking the image:

C:\Windows\System32\Sysprep\sysprep.exe /oobe /generalize /unattend:C:\Files\deploy.xml

Taking Image

Create a bootable Clonezilla image using these instructions.

To take the image follow the instructions here. All of the default settings can be used.

Creating Bootable Media

The instructions to create bootable media can be found here.

From here, follow these instructions to create the all-in-one boot media.

Deploying Image

It takes approximately 10 minutes to deploy a PC image, with 5 minutes required with the USB and 5 minutes with an internet connection. Once Windows has started booting (step 6 below), the USB can be disconnected and then imaging can start on the next PC.

Follow these steps to deploy the image:

  1. Connect the PC to an open internet connection (e.g. at home, or through the VEC router)
  2. Turn the PC and immediately press F11 repeatedly until the boot menu appears
  3. Select the Samsung USB Drive
  4. Press Enter to skip the 30s countdown
  5. Press Y + Enter twice to start imaging
  6. Turn the PC on
  7. Wait for the Windows Desktop
