Integrating Hyper-V RTM into the Windows Server 2008 installation Source

Hyper-V RTM is officially released and we can install it by downloading an update patch. In addition, we all know that Hyper-V in Windows Server 2008 RTM is RC0, prior to the release of Windows Server 20,080, or Microsoft did not release Windows Server containing Hyper-V RTM Before 2008, do we still need to install Hyper-V RC0 before we update? In fact, we can fully integrate Hyper-V RTM into the Windows Server 2008 installation source.

First, we'll unlock the download to the Hyper-V RTM update patch package.

expand-f:* WINDOWS6.0-KB-950050-X64.MSU C:\950050

Then, copy the "Install.wim" file from the "Sources" directory in the Windows Server 2008 installation disk to your local disk. We can use "imagex/info" to view information about the installation image to obtain each installation version, such as Standard full, Enterprise full, Datacenter full, and the corresponding number of the Core (WIM image in DEX).

Before you integrate Hyper-V RTM into a WIM image, you need to load the WIM in the current system:

IMAGEX/MOUNTRW C:\ws08\sources\install.wim〈wim Image Index〉c:\mount

Then, use Pkgmgr to integrate the update patches into the installation source image.

START/W Pkgmgr/ip/m:c:\950050\windows6.0-kb950050-x64.cab/o:c:\mount; C:\mount\windows

Finally, the image is unmount from the system and the modifications are written to the image file.

Imagex/unmount/commit C:\mount
