Relocate the Image Builder Wizard Files (Standard 8)
7/8/2014
Learn how to move the Image Builder Wizard (IBW) files to a location accessible by your Windows Embedded 8 Standard (Standard 8) device.
If your device does not have a DVD-ROM drive, copy the Image Builder files to a location that your device can access, such as a USB flash drive or a network share.
Prerequisites
- You have a target device that meets the hardware requirements for an embedded device.
- You have the Image Builder Wizard (IBW) DVD that matches the architecture of your device, such as x86.
To relocate the Image Builder files
Copy the IBW DVD to a location that your device can access, such as a USB flash drive or network share. For example, if the DVD-ROM drive letter is E and you are moving the files to a network share on a mapped network drive H, at the command prompt, type the following:
xcopy E:\*.* /E H:\wes
Note
Paths to catalogs greater than 90 characters may result in failures if the Windows max_path is exceeded. These errors can be difficult to troubleshoot, so we recommend that you use short paths and mappings to avoid this problem.
