b06nd51.sys for x86-based builds) in the driver's directory. If Windows PE is deployed as a flat image from a RIS or WDS
server, you must also place both the b06nd.inf and the appropriate driver file in the I386 or AMD64 directory containing the
image. If the RIS or WDS server is running Windows 2000 Server and deploying an x86 WinPE image, you may need to apply
the following modification to the b06nd.inf file located in the I386 directory as follows:

1. Locate [Manufacturer] header within the file.
2. Review the line below it which reads: %brcm% = broadcom, ntx86, ntamd64, ntia64 or equivalent.
3. Modify that line to read: %brcm% = broadcom.ntx86, ntamd64, ntia64. The change made replaces the comma and

space after "broadcom" with a period.

4. Save the file.
5. Restart the RIS service (binlsvc) or WDS services (wdsserver).

Inserting the NetXtreme II Monolithic Driver in a in a WinPE 2.0 or 3.1
Image

Follow these procedures for inserting the NetXtreme II monolithic driver into WinPE images. The instructions differ depending
on the WinPE version and the Windows Server OS version system being used.

WinPE 2.0

The Microsoft Windows Server 2008 method of inserting the NetXtreme II monolithic driver in a WinPe 2.0 image is different
from the Windows Server 2008 R2 method, as discussed below.

By default, the monolithic driver is not included in the boot.wim and install.wim files that come with either the Microsoft
Windows Server 2008 CD or the Windows Server 2008 R2 CD. Microsoft's Windows Automated Installation Kit (AIK) allows
you to modify the default boot.wim and install.wim files, and create WinPE 2.0 images to include the NetXtreme II monolithic
driver in the Windows Server installation.

To insert the monolithic driver into a WinPE 2.0 boot image (Windows Server 2008)

To insert Broadcom's NetXtreme II monolithic driver in a WinPE 2.0 image, download AIK from

http://www.microsoft.com/en-

us/download/default.aspx

and install.

After installing AIK, copy the latest monolithic driver to a directory on the local hard drive of the system you installed the AIK.
Follow the procedure below to insert the monolithic driver into a WinPE 2.0 boot image.

1. From All Programs, open Windows AIK and select Windows PE Tools Command prompt.
2. At the command prompt, run the copype.cmd script. The script requires two arguments: hardware architecture and

destination location.
copype.cmd <arch> <destination>

For example: copype x86 c:\VistaPEx86

NOTE: The directory structure c:\VistaPEx86 is used throughout this procedure.

3. Mount the base image to a local directory so that you can add or remove packages by typing:

imagex /mountrw c:\VistaPEx86\winpe.wim 1 c:\VistaPEx86\mount

4. Place the monolithic driver and inf file in c:\drivers\x32\ by typing:

peimg /inf=c:\Drivers\x32\b06nd.inf c:\VistaPEx86\mount\windows

AIK inserts the driver into the WinPE 2.0 image.

5. To complete the customization of the image, prepare the image for deployment, type:

peimg /prep c:\VistaPEx86\mount\windows

6. When asked to continue and have the program prepare the image for deployment, type:

yes

7. To commit the changes to the original image file (Winpe.wim), type:

imagex /unmount c:\VistaPEx86\mount /commit

8. To replace the default Boot.wim file in the \ISO directory with your new custom image, type:

copy c:\VistaPex86\winpe.wim c:\VistaPEx86\ISO\sources\boot.wim

To add a device driver to an offline Windows PE image (Windows Server 2008 R2)
