As far as I know there is no way to pass variables/environments
informations directly to wondows (WinPE) without (re)building the image and
including the configuration in it.
I've found that a simple way could help us without too many hacks.
Actually when we boot up we spawn an IP from the DHCP from our TFTP/Proxy
server.
The pxe configuration at the moment show something like this:
DEFAULT menu
LABEL menu
COM32 linux.c32 boot/wimboot
APPEND initrdfile=boot/windows-x64/bcd,boot/windows-x64/boot.sdi,boot/
windows-x64/boot.wim
Adding at the end of the PXE the variables in a commented way could be a
good alternative:
DEFAULT menu
LABEL menu
COM32 linux.c32 boot/wimboot
APPEND initrdfile=boot/windows-x64/bcd,boot/windows-x64/boot.sdi,boot/
windows-x64/boot.wim
#VAR FOREMANURL "https://myforeman.url.domain.ext";
#VAR AUTOPROVISION "https://myforeman.url.domain.ext
/unattended/provision?token=0000000-0000-0000-0000-0000000000"
#VAR HOSTNAME "MYHATEDWINMACHINE01"
#VAR DOMAIN "windowsdomain01.local"
After that with a script that will be the same per any installation we will
contiune the installation.
We'll need a TFTP client (obviously) and a good dose of batch scripting.
I'm not that good on windows and I can use an hand.
With this configuration we will be able to installa machine behind NAT that
actually could not get the provision configration file.
