Copy the ISO file in .iso format to the Provisioner PXE Server.
# The location for your Windows Server 2012 and Windows 8 .iso files is this pre-existing directory:
/home/tftpboot/ISOs/windows/win8_2012
# The location for your Windows Server 2008 and Windows 7 .iso files is this pre-existing directory:
/home/tftpboot/ISOs/windows/win7_2008
Note: if the win8_2012 directory is not pre-existing on your system (early versions of Chuck Berry didn't include it), create it manually:
# mkdir /home/tftpboot/ISOs/windows/win8_2012
The typical contents of these directories after you have downloaded several ISOs may look like this:
en_windows_8.1_with_update_x64_dvd_4065090.iso
en_windows_server_2012_r2_with_update_x64_dvd_4065220.iso
7600.16385.090713-1255_x64fre_server_eval_en-us-GRMSXEVAL_EN_DVD.iso
en_windows_7_enterprise_x64_dvd_x15-70749.iso
en_windows_server_2008_r2_standard_x64_dvd_x15-50365_USEnokey.iso
A Windows Customization and Driver Injection Utility can be used to add drivers to Microsoft-supplied Windows ISOs. In this case, a Windows Server 2012 R2 ISO was injected with over 1300 drivers to support all Cisco UCS B-Series and C-Series components (network, storage, chipset, etc.):
