I’ve just put up a new tutorial (strangely enough about the title)! You can read it here.

Work dd-wrt, networking, radius, server2008

I’ve been playing with Windows Deployment Services for rolling out Windows 7 Professional (from Server 2008 R2) over the last couple of days. Aside from a missing NIC driver everything seems to be fairly straight forward.

Plenty of documentation already exists on this subject, but I spent the good part of a day wading through it, so here I present a “get you up and running quickly” list of docs:

1. Technet Step-by-Step (for Server 2003)
2. Sysprep Windows 7
3. Better Instructions for Discover Images (i.e. for non-pxe hardware)

Of course this set of articles is meant to just by a quick and dirty start… you’ll have to read deeper if you want definitive instructions on unattended remote installs. But not too much deeper. WindowsNetworking.com has the start of a set of articles on Windows 7 deployment which will probably help you out with that.

This is for as much my reference as anyone else.
