Create Windows 10 ISO image from Existing Installation

Yes I didn't mean anything else than that the steps involved in all three ISO alternatives have been tested.

Which ISO you were trying to make (Part One, Two or Three), which build and edition you used to create install.wim, which build and edition you used to copy the rest of the setup files?

Usually you relocate the Users folder with component Shell-Setup > FolderLocations in answer file. I have to admit I've never done new install.wim from a system with already relocated Users folder. My way to it is a clean install keeping C:\Users where it is, then sysprep with answer file relocating Users to another drive.

If you are in no hurry, let me test this scenario first, I'll do it within next few hours and post back.

I will be testing on my side as well. I'll robably test in VM first with no apps installed, just to be safe, and see what happens.

Hi,

Further to post # 19:

The OEM DVD contains two files in its root, modlist.xml and reclang.txt.
All else, as far as the root goes is as a normal W10 ISO.

Starting with modlist.xml :

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16" standalone="no"?>
<!-- module list of preinstallation -->

It's quite long but large chunks of it can be skipped as these are merely LP related.
The file also points to some drivers so I assume this is used in audit mode to modify the install.wim file

The there is also Recovery partition related stuff.

Question is, was this file created using SIM (I am a total newbie here) and if so can I edit it so I can use it to include the latest versions of these drivers and all version references are replaced by say 14393 (AU).

I only just reading that tutorial so bear with me.

Next there's this reclang.txt which looks much like a .INI file structurally:

I wonder what the exact purpose of this file is and if this processed during setup or is this also part of the install.wim process ?

I have my flame suit on and I'm well aware I should read the tuts before asking questions.

Besides a Langpack folder in the root of the layout there's also a number of subdirectories in the "Sources" folder.
A folder named "$OEM$", then "SS".

The latter contains the following folders: "panther"

Here we find "unattend.xml" which looks like this:

This one I'm certain, does get read and executed during the setup process.

Second main subdir of "$$" is a folder called "SETUP" directly followed "SCRIPTS"

The structure:

There we see various scripts, commands etc. that do various tasks but I wonder what triggers these because I suspect that too is build into install.wim.

Bottom line, from my ignorant newbie view, this looks all quite daunting and the only thing I'd like to alter or skip although it doesn't seem to complain when left as is, is the Hotfix dir's content which is not needed for the AU version AFAIK.
It's KB KB3074674.

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3074674

In view of its purpose I may as well leave it.

To recap, the method I used (as decribed in posting # 19) works well enough but since the Intel driver packages are not contained in the standard AU install.wim these are of course not installed which results in a few yellow bangs in device manager.
Easy enough to fix as AU is now almost ahead of my machine as far as drivers go.

Still if I can include the latest ones in the custom install.wim for AU that would be great.

O yes, there's a further folder there named system32 which holds OEMLOGO.bmp and Thumbs.db.

No idea why it's there as the actual logo used to show in the "System" control panel item is the same file masquerading under another in %windir% as the unattend.xml file will reveal.
That file resides in the root of the "$$" folder.

What intrigues me is how such an OEM distribution media gets created and if there's a relatively easy way to upgrade such media with an existing ISO as say serving as the backbone for this.

Now I'm going to delve into:

https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/...e-sysprep.html

If someone's convinced I'll find 90% of the answers to my questions there then saying so is helping too. :)

TIA,

Frank

I'm not sure why you would like to use it? The install.wim will be created from an existing installation, an already set up Windows. The rest should come from standard Windows 10 ISO.

Hi,

I am quite convinced that's not going to work. OEM install media is the worst possible base for a customized install.wim / ISO.

Actually I would like to do it the other way around. Taking the MS AU install.wim and adding the OEM customizations to it or is that a bad idea too ?

Honestly, I don't know it just might work.

I can't even test this; since days of Windows Vista I have never used OEM Windows. When I get a new machine with pre-installed Windows, be it laptop or desktop, I don't even boot it to this pre-installed OS. Instead I boot from my own install media clean installing Windows, throwing manufacturer's OS disks if included to trash.

LOL.
I know what you mean but this one is aimed at big businesses worldwide so it's exceptionally clean and comes with just the right set of drivers to make it ready for use right out of the box and that's that.

At this point in time and using AU instead of 10240 (and it's because of 10240 that I want to bring it up to date) it hardly needs any extra drivers except for Intel's RAID drivers. All else is detected quite fast by Windows Update.

Thanks for offering to test it but I'll start by mounting the OEM 10240 install.wim and try to figure out how the OEM integrated everything in their image.
With some luck it may well be quite easy to do.

Thanks for your help, Kari.

I will be testing on my side as well. I'll robably test in VM first with no apps installed, just to be safe, and see what happens.

All scenarios without an answer file to capture install.wim from Windows installation with relocated Users folder fail:

Create Windows 10 ISO image from Existing Installation-image.png

Install.wim will be created, ISO can be created and it boots and Windows installation goes almost to the end, then gives the above error message.

Next to test various scenarios with an answer file.

Hi,

Further to post # 19:

<snipped for brevity>

TIA,

Frank

So, in reading the first two files, it looks like the first file is a language selector, inserting various languages as modules. The second file is the .INI for Windows 10 Recovery language selection. Or, at least, something along those lines.

Frank, if you really want OEM customizations, you should probably start reading up on the Multi-OEM tool over at MDL - that will probably accomplish more what you are looking for (and be a lot easier than trying o reinvent the whell, eh?)

I had a feeling this was true. However, if I can set up everythnig including the answer file, then I'll be able to make new installs by simply replacing the Instal.WIM file and re-creating the .iSO every single time, correct?
