NIC Enabled, Settings Incorrect Rate Topic: -----

I have successfully integrated the correct NIC drivers into a custom Windows PE image, but when WinPE boots up and I do an "ipconfig", the settings of the NIC are:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . :
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 169.254.4.45
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.0.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . :


My WINBOM.ini file contains the following entry:

[WinPE.Net]
Gateway=192.168.1.1
IPConfig=192.168.1.100
StartNet=Yes
SubnetMask=255.255.255.0


One weird thing... I added that entry, but the actual custom WinPE image contained an additional "[WinPE.Net]" on top of my WinPE.Net entry, which resulted in:

[WinPE.Net]
[WinPE.Net]
Gateway=192.168.1.1
IPConfig=192.168.1.100
StartNet=Yes
SubnetMask=255.255.255.0


Anyone else happen to experience this behavior?

Anyhow, I have that WinPE.Net entry in my WINBOM.ini file that is in the root directory of my WinPE CD, but none of the specified settings carried over to my enabled NIC.

Ultimately, I want to connect to a network share. Could anyone please tell me the necessary commands to do so once I'm in WinPE? Thanks :D

Have you tried to correct your winbom.ini?

It probobly only reads the first winpe.net tag
