Here, in this quote, are some of the updated informations to this tutorial.Recently, in the early of July 2010, Windows 7 Installation boot entry has been added into MultiBootISO.exe. We don't have to do it manually as described below.All you need to do is:Step 1: Download MultiBootISO, run and install it into your USB Pendrive/External Hard DiskStep 2: As for fresh install, you only need to copy the following 3 file/directorys into the root directory of your USB(thanks for climbing for this info):bootmgr (file)boot (directory)sources (directory)Thats it. Reboot your computer from USB. From the boot menu, choose Operating System Installers Install Windows Vista/7This Installation process of Windows 7/Vista will start. 43.6.4 IMPORTANT: you should see the blue Windows Command Shell window which installs the FiraDisk driver and then load the ISO file when Windows Setup starts.

If you don't see this then it won't work! -Method (for USB Hard Drives)The auto-detection of AutoUnattend.xml will not work if you use a hard drive (neither USB nor IDE/SATA) as a hard drive is not a 'removable' disk, we need to patch the ISO files themselves so that they will automatically run the LOADISO.CMD from the boot drive. To do this we need to copy the contents of the ISO file to an empty folder, modify the ISO file contents and then create a new version of the ISO file.The guide below is for advanced users. I assume you already know how to mount images using ImageX (or DISM or GImageX) or can use similar tools. It is easiest to download and install theWindows 7 WAIK (over 1.3GB!). However, you can use Tutorial #83 to just download ImageX in about 30 seconds!Please refer to my other tutorials (e.g.

Xp Image Iso

For WAIK and Virtual CloneDrive see Tutorial #1) for details on installing and using the WAIK.1. Using your Windows 'office' system, Mount the ISO that you want to modify using ImDisk or Virtual CloneDrive or any suitable tool and extract all the contents to an empty folder on your hard drive (e.g. If you want to be able to install any edition of Windows (e.g. All Vista/Win 7 SKUs rather than just Professional), then delete the C:TESTISOSOURCESEI.CFG file.If you have Win8, you will need to change the ei.cfg file contents to:ChannelDefaultVL03. Run a WAIK command prompt as Administrator (found in the Start Menu after installing WAIK) and mount the C:TESTISOSourcesboot.wim file (use Imagex /info to determine the correct image number that you need to mount, usually this is Index #2 - but not always!). E.g.IMPORTANT: Make sure you use the correct wim image number - it is not always 2!imagex /info C:TESTISOSOURCESboot.wim(check what images you have by looking at the output)mkdir c:mountimagex /mountrw C:TESTISOSOURCESboot.wim 2 c:mount4. Now we just need to copy the two files to theC:mountwindowssystem32 folder - winpeshl.ini andmysetup.cmd.

Use the ones in the FiraDisk folder inside thetutorial download. Their contents are shown below just for reference:Although these two files are located in the FiraDisk folder inside the Tutorial #43 Tut43FiraIso.zip download for your convenience, they are not actually used in booting and can be deleted from theFiraDisk folder after copying them to the mounted ISO folder - if you wish.5. Commit the changes and unmount the mounted image - e.g.(close any Explorer windows which point at C:mount first!)imagex /unmount /commit c:mountimagex /cleanup6. Create a new ISO file from the WAIK command prompt:oscdimg.exe -b'C:Program FilesWindows AIKToolsPEToolsx86bootetfsboot.com' -u1 -d -h -m -lWIN732SP1 C:TESTISO C:Win732SP1.iso(-l specifies the volume Label - note that the source path C:TESTISO ends in a back-slash - however some versions of oscdimg may not like the final and you may get a 'usage' message - if so then remove the last backslash).

The -u1(ISO9660) option ensures that the ISO is readable in both UDF and ISO 9660 (grub4dos readable) format - NOTE: when mounted by grubdos, all filenames will be uppercase - e.g. BOOTMGR not bootmgr.

For maximum compatibility (e.g. With WinImage) you can also add -j1 for Joliet format (upper/lower case and long filenames).6. Now follow the tutorial above but use this new ISO file.7. (optional)The Autounattend.xml file in the root of the USB drive is not required and can be deleted.If you delete the AutoUnattend.xml file, you need also to change the menu.lst slightly and delete the lines that mention AutoUnattend.xml, otherwise the grub4dos menu will give an error as the file will no longer exist.8.

The new ISO should allow you to install any edition of Windows that is contained within the Install.wim file. You can also use the same files on a USB Flash drive if you wish.Note: MySetup.cmd can run different versions of Setup.exeX:Setup.exe will run Setup and offer the Repair Operating System option.%RAMDRIVE%Setup.exe and SourcesSetup.exe will go straight to the 'Install Windows' GUI and will not allow the user to Repair Windows.If you do not want the Repair option offered, you should comment out the line shown in purple in MySetup.cmd (i.e. Place a double colon:: in front of it - or delete the line).To remove the Repair Y/N question, delete the following lines from the FiradiskLoadiso.cmd fileif not exist X:sourcesrecoverystartrep.exe goto:SKIPREPAIRecho.echo.

REPAIR WINDOWS?.echo.set /P ASK='Do you want to try to repair Windows (Y/N)?: 'if /I '%ASK%'Y' start /w X:sourcesrecoverystartrep.exe.
