Wimboot hanging at bootmanager saying "unexpected error" #36

Closed Juff-Ma closed 11 months ago

Juff-Ma commented 2 years ago

I extracted all my files from a windows 10x64 iso and running it on such a system in a vm using a custom build ipxe iso.

After i loaded the files and bootet (as can be seen in this video (sorry for the slow typing i thought a video would be helping more than a screenshot)) the windows bootloader hangs saying unexpected error "status: 0xc0000225"

Adding "index=2" doesnt help.

Thanks in advance and sorry for my english

Only load boot.wim, boot.sdi, and especially BCD is redundant.

Create a script and post the scripts contents instead of a video of you typing it ;)

Usually wimboot is used with iPXE, what is this NETBOOT prompt that you are having? 😉

Juff-Ma commented 2 years ago

The netboot prompt is just a ipxe iso with customization (the config files allow this).

And because of the first question, I already tried that, it didn't help, but when i'm on PC again I will try it again.

And post script.😅

thats the most minimal script,

both ipxe 64 and 32 bit mode won't work (the 32 bit mode doesnt even show imboots loading texts)

#!ipxe

boot

using newest version of wimboot.

After trying it again this year it worked with the newest iPXE and Wimboot versions.

Sadly i found out that you cant just boot a .wim file and the installer will work. But it should work with the corresponding winpe.

Closing this for now
