Hello,

I have set up a pxe-server from which I can install Ubuntu and Windows7. But when I boot PE-environment for installing WIndows it stops with a dis shell. Then I have to make e new script to start the actual installation. That's not what I want. The solution is simple, make a startup script in the boot.wim file and it will start. OK that works. But now comes a problem, whenI want to seperate a Windows 7 home installation from a Windows 7 Pro installation. The problem is that I can only point to the .wim file and than the BCD file wil be loaded. But there is no way to load another BCD file or .wim file. I tried iPXE but now I have the problem that the client doesn't load boot.ipxe with the http protocol. It persist with the tftp protocol and keeps telling me that it could not find the file. How can I force the client to load the boot.ipxe file with http or load it with tftp. I followed the instructions on http://ipxe.org/wimboot. Is it possible to start an installation of Windows7 Home and Windows7 Pro from the same pxeserver.
Thank you in advance.

Kind Regards,
Marcel de Vries
