WinPE IFW Usb issues after restart.
Posted: Wed Apr 13, 2016 9:09 am
Hi!
First of all I'd like to explain how I do, and why I do it.
I use WinPE to boot an enviorment on a terminal. A few clever scripts later I get a list of available kernels(images) to install.
After the kernel has been installed (restored) in with imagew.exe I copy in some other softwares, depending on what terminal it is.
The reason I do it like this is because I now only have 20~ something kernels with 6 different softwares. So all in all 26 files. (which 6 is restore images).
Instead of what I would be forced to have if I only used a full image without moving over the software manually. Then I'd have to have 6*20 images instead ~120.
Now to the actual problem. After I've booted, and restored with below parameters. When it reboots(rb:2), no USB ports are working. And I have to do an additional restart(in my case, turning off PSU then on again) for it to start working.
x:\IFW\imagew.exe /nousbpwrfix /r /o /x /d:0 /f:"D:\images\%ImageName%" /rb:2
I've tried without the nousbpwrfix but it only slows down my installation process with about 10 seconds. No other difference.
Do I have to do some magical USB controller hiders?
Best regards,
