1 Debugging Windows Remote Installation Services (RIS) can be
2 problematic. Here are some assorted notes on the process:
5 Getting hold of the files
6 =========================
8 Add/Remove Windows Components -> Remote Installation Services
10 Files will be placed in \windows\system32\reminst. Copy them out to a
11 TFTP server. Configure DHCP to hand out startrom.com.
14 Getting past the "Press F12" message
15 ====================================
17 Passing F12 through to the guest machine is difficult. It's easier to
18 patch the startrom.com binary to accept a different key. Open
19 startrom.com in a hex editor, search for the hex string
20 6681fb00860000, and replace it with 6681fb66210000. startrom.com will
21 now accept the "F" key instead of "F12".
