(SOLVED)Multiple versions of Windows

[piet4220]

Hello,

I have just installed Opsi, and is trying to setup the Windows install directories.

1. How can I create folders for multiple versions of Windows?
I need folders for the following system so that they can be chosen for installation via Opsi.
Windows 7 64bit (Volume license)
Windows 7 32bit (Volume license)
Windows 7 64bit (OEM)
Windows 7 32bit (OEM)
etc...

2. Also how do I avoid copying the driverpacks to every folder? can this be done via symlink?
3. is it possible to place the installations folders on a windows share?

Thank you.

Kind regards
Piet

Hello Piet,

for each win7-Version with different installfiles you must make a different net-boot -product.

Example

Code: Alles auswählen

opsi-package-manage --new-product-id win7oem -x win7_...

and repackage the new Product with opsi-makeproductfile.

For the winpe and drivers-folder you can work with symlinks

I've tried your suggestion but I can't make it work.

This is what I do.
root@Opsi:/opt/pcbin/install# opsi-package-manager --new-product-id WindowsXP-x86-OEM-DA -x winxppro

ERROR: Failed to process command 'extract': Failed to get metadata from package '/opt/pcbin/install/winxppro': Failed to guess archive type of '/opt/pcbin/install/winxppro'

Also I have noticed that the existing netboot products have a name like Windows7-x86-Deutsch is it possible to change that name, or delete the existing products and make new ones?
