This ManageFusion lab provided hands-on experience with the Windows Preinstallation Environment (WinPE) and Linux as pre-boot environments that help speed system deployment times by 200 to 300 percent.
In the lab, participants were able to:
1. Install Linux Preboot OS.
2. Create PXE boot options for Linux and WinPE.
3. Customize PXE server settings for shared and server specific boot images.
4.Create a DS job with a preboot task to image a managed computer from Linux, and WinPE.
