I trying to automate the HAL detection and replacement using the Windows PE 2.1 automation environment. I am using the script below provided in "Altiris Deployment Solution 6.5 Hardware Independent Imaging v4". I have modified the script to include the ACPI Multiprocessor PC HAL , which is halmacpi.dll and the HardwareID in the registry key "HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Enum\Root\ACPI_HAL\0000" is "acpiapic_mp".

I am getting an "incorrect function" status in the Deployment console when executing the "run script" task in Win PE automaton environment.
What I am doing wrong?

Here is the script:
=====================
REM The following is a sample batch file that can be run within the PE Shell
REM to determine which HAL was loaded and then copy the proper HAL from a stored location in the Drivers folder.

@ECHO OFF

:HAL

REM Lets query the registry to see what hal is used.

REM First HAL to check for is the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface HAL

REG QUERY HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Enum\Root\ACPI_HAL\0000 /v HardwareId |Find /I /C "acpipic_up"

REM Found the HAL lets move down to ACPI

IF %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 GOTO ACPI

REM HAL not found lets check the next value

REM Second HAL to check for is the Uniprocessor HAL

REG QUERY HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Enum\Root\ACPI_HAL\0000 /v HardwareId |Find /I /C "acpiapic_up"

REM Found the HAL lets move down to AACPI

IF %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 GOTO AACPI

REM Third HAL to check for is the ACPI Multiprocessor PC HAL

REG QUERY HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Enum\Root\ACPI_HAL\0000 /v HardwareId |Find /I /C "acpiapic_mp"

REM Found the HAL lets move down to MACPI

IF %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 GOTO MACPI

GOTO :NOHAL

:ACPI

REM Copy in the correct HAL

.\Rdeploy\Windows\Firm copy prod:\drivers\halacpi.dll prod:\Windows\System32\HAL.dll

GOTO END

:AACPI

REM Copy in the correct HAL

.\Rdeploy\Windows\Firm copy prod:\drivers\halaacpi.dll prod:\Windows\System32\HAL.dll

GOTO END

:MACPI

REM Copy in the correct HAL

.\Rdeploy\Windows\Firm copy prod:\drivers\halmacpi.dll prod:\Windows\System32\HAL.dll

GOTO END

:NOHAL

ECHO Can not find the appropriate HAL to use. Leaving as is.

:END

ECHO Process finished successfully.

EXIT
