How would I apply a custom .wim file to a hardware RAID w/imagex?
I'm currently taking lots of cool MCITP and MCSE classes and I've just been playing around with all the cool stuff you can do. However, I like to put these to my own personal skills as well. I used a Server 2008 VM to deploy Windows 7 Ultimate to my laptop. I then fully configured the machine and installed the programs I would like in my custom .WIM. I have run sysprep, booted to PE, and then captured my image.
Now what I would like to do is apply this image to my custom built desktop gaming computer. I have done this previously with Win7 Pro x64 successfully (same entire process) but I would like to go back to x86 (no need to have x64 and it has been a little unstable)..
I figured while I was at it this I would set the two 250GB SATA HDDs I have in it to use the hardware RAID on the motherboard.
My question is: How would I go about booting to PE, installing the RAID drivers, and then installing my custom .wim using the imagex /apply command?
Would I be able to begin a dvd install just to install the raid drivers and then start over to PE?
