    9 Since Windows 8, WinPE 4.0 is available. However, Windows 8 can also be installed using WinPE 3.x.

    11 == WinPE 3.x ==
     11The (excellent) OPSI documentation describes at length, how to prepare a full OS Windows installation (see https://download.uib.de/opsi4.1/documentation/html/en/opsi-getting-started-v4.1/opsi-getting-started-v4.1.html#opsi-getting-started-firststeps-osinstall-fill-base-packages-nt6).

    13 Since Windows 7.
     13This can be archived quicker, especially, the preparing WinPE can be done directly on the Linux OPSI server, instead of using Windows and the need to install WAIK (or ADK):

     55Using {{{7z x ${SRC} -o${DEST}}}} is a shortcut to avoid mounting the ISO or disk image files.
     56If you prefer, you can use this:
     57{{{
     58TMP=$(mktemp -d)
     59sudo mount ${SRC} ${TMP}
     60cp -a ${TMP}/. ${DEST]/.
     61sudo umount ${TMP}

    51 Copy ISO subdirectory as winpe Directory to OPSI server:
    52 
    53 {{{
    54 cp ISO/. /var/lib/opsi/depot/win*\winpe/.
    55 }}}

    57 Hint: The boot.wim file is also accessable by the 7z archiving programm (at least for WinPE versions <4.0)

    61 Currently this is not supported by OPSI. Modifying this images works, but driver integration fails (create_driver_links.py tries to extract drivers using 7z, which does not work for WinPE >= 4.0).
