Windows Server 2008 System Builder Readiness Center
With Launch events kicking off across the US this week, I thought it was pertinent to post the latest and greatest updates on the tools that are out there to help with the deployment and readiness for everyone. Check out these updates..
Tech Tools:
Expand Your Expertise: Learn to Deploy Windows Server 2008
You can preinstall Windows Server 2008 with the same Windows Vista OEM Preinstallation Kit (OPK) used to customize and deploy Windows Vista. The Windows Vista OPK provides specific information, including OEM licensing requirements and policy guidelines.
New Tools Extend Capabilities of Windows OPK
The updated Windows OEM Preinstallation Kit (OPK) is designed to help system builders deploy Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008 onto new PCs. It includes two new tools to ensure that images can be deployed to various hardware configurations and archived RTM files can be removed in order to reclaim disk space.
Choose the Best Way to Preinstall Windows Vista SP1
Learn how to update an existing Windows Vista RTM image to Windows Vista with SP1. This method may seem time-consuming, but compared with the effort required to create a new image it may be the appropriate method to use.
