Hi All,

Here's my attempt at a driver integrator for VistaPE.

Q. Why did I write this?
A. The existing integrator by ctv99 didn't do what I wanted.
I wanted:
1. Logging of peimg output.
2. Visibility of commands being executed.
3. A text mode interface. The old GUI really didn't appeal to me. I think this app is better as a console app.
4. Something that created a "Users" directory that peimg requires, even if it's empty. (I'd rather the script did it than the pebuilder plugin.)
5. Something written in an understandable popular open source language so that others can improve it. Python rocks!

The main information is:
- I used (and tweaked slightly) the original plugin script from ctv99 ?.
- download http://mark.alphadim...Integrator01.7z
- Extract the contents of the archive to WinBuilder\Projects\VistaPE-Core\Drivers
- Configure the plugin in winbuilder with the correct directories.
- Run it!
- Log is created as adddrivers.log. This is appended to on each run, so you my want to clean it out occasionally.

I've also included a how.to.build.txt which gives the details of what to do to generate a new executable. All of the trickery for that is in add2exe.py

Please reply to this topic to confirm how it goes.

Cheers,
Markus.

Gday mate, I tested it out an I can't say there's any script files lying around to prove that it has worked. Maybe I'm doing something wrong?

"'C:\\Program Files\\WinBuilder\\Target\\VistaPE-Core\\Windows'" - Shouldn't that be "C:\Windows" ?

Hi Jezza,

The output should be like:

['D:\\build\\WinBuilder\\Projects\\VistaPE-Core\\Drivers\\Drivers\\AddDrivers.exe ', 'D:\\build\\WinBuilder\\Target\\VistaPE-Core\\Windows', 'D:\\build\\WinBuilder\\Projects\\VistaPE-Core\\Drivers\\Drivers\\Drivers']

snip....

The log is in D:\build\WinBuilder\Projects\VistaPE-Core\Drivers\Drivers\adddrivers.log on my machine.

The first line is the parameters that the program gets the from script
0: The executable path
1: The path of the windows image to insert the drivers in to.
2: The path that is being searched for drivers to insert.

If nothing was found in the drivers folder, you will just get the first line, so I reckon that's what has happened. Check the directory structure above and check that yours matches.

One thing I forgot to mention previously... make sure that peimg is in the system path!

Any Plans to add a Gui to it?

I have some problems using this script ... I can't integrate drivers
the log-file shows for every driver I want to integrate:

PEIMG failed to use the servicing stack shim library (ssshim.dll) to locate a
servicing stack that matches the target image (0x80070003).

PEIMG failed to complete the operation with status code 0x80070003.
return code = 0

any plan what I'm doing wrong?

btw I use WinBuilder [075 beta 4] VistaPE Core v.12 (Beta 2) and a VistaDVD incl SP1 as source

Hi markus8,

would it make sense to give the path of peimg as an additional parameter to adddrivers.exe? The path can be automatically obtained through the predefined variable %WAIKDir% after a ReadEnv.

I tried the script with VistaPE 12 RC1, Vista SP1 DVD German as source and WAIK 1.1 German. It was no surprise that the build took a little longer (22 minutes to integrate drivers with peimg in comparison to one second simply copying them with the regular script). Disadvantage was that there is a bsod when booting the system in VMware:
STOP 0x000000D1 in rdacdisk.sys
I removed IBM\2 from the storage directory. WinBuilder is building presently (will take 22 minutes longer than usually...). Will see what happens next.

Many Greetings

After removing IBM\2 with rdacdisk.sys from the storage directory VistaPE booted fine. So I guess that peimg enters the storage drivers in the DeviceCriticalDatabase registry path and that it is loaded at startup. rdacdisk.sys seems not to be compatible with Vista/WinPE 2. VistaPE 12 RC1 driver integration probably doesn't preload the storage drivers.

But there is an other funny problem with the script. peimg seems not to load all drivers. I noticed that the target system doesn't include the LAN drivers for ADMtek or Intel 1000/Pro. The Logfile states success:

Whereas the storage driver for an Adaptec interface card was copied: [codebox]Doing 55/151, cmd "peimg /inf="D:\Work\WinBuilder\Build\Projects\VistaPE-Core\Zusatz_MZ\Drivers\Drivers\Storage\Adaptec\10\ARCSAS.INF" "D:\Work\WinBuilder\Build\Target\VistaPE-Core\Windows"" Vorinstallationsumgebungs-Abbildsetuptool fr Windows

The LAN driver e1y6032.inf works when it is copied using the 'simple' regular driver script or when it is loaded using drvload later on.

The same to me.

It seems it cannot work on a Vista hosted environment.

The solution is:

1. Apply wimpe.wim (from Windows AIK) to a directory (named temp).

2. put all files from %TargetDir%\Windows\System32\config\*, (SYSTEM, SOFTWARE, DEFAULT, etc) to temp\Windows\System32\config and overwrite all files.

3. Install INFs using peimg.exe on temp\windows.

4. copy the file which copied in step 2 from temp\Windows\Systm32\config to %TargetDir%\Windows\Systm32\config

en, drivers installed successfully.

1) You have NOT peimg in the build, or it cannot be found
2) Try using a more recent Winbuilder, FOLLOW instructions in ctmag's signature:
