Hmmm. :dubbio:

 

SetupFailOver.cmd (that can obviously be adapted it if needed to the specific needs) came out with Vista, maybe it isn't in 7 WAIK :unsure: but only because they forgot putting it in, as at first sight I cannot see why it shouldn't be usable with 7 also:

The Windows 7 version is (publicly) documented here:

etc.

 

Once you are booted in the WinRE, you are to all effects running a Windows PE in which you can do *anything* you want, including applying a .wim to another partition or run an install (attended or unattended).
