Issue
If hardware is delivered without an OS installed - How do you extract the hardware inventory information in order to download drivers with Build Console?
Requirements
- Zdrivers files on USB media - see Machine Driver Management for information on configuring Zdrivers
- WinPE media created by the Build Console
Solution
Run Zdrivers from Windows PE media
- Boot Hardware using Windows PE media
- Insert USB drive containing zdrivers executable
- Run :
Zdrivers.exe /scan:no-wmi
NOTE: Driver XML file will be extracted to the same folder as zdrivers.exe
WARNING! If /scan:no-wmi command line option is not given, zdrivers will error
Import drivers xml file into build console as normal.
