    ROCK Pi X >  Install >  Install Windows .wim image to ROCK Pi X (eMMC)

Introduction

The Windows Imaging Format (WIM) is a file-based disk image format. It was developed by Microsoft to help deploy Windows Vista and subsequent versions of the Windows operating system family.

Prepare

  • Windows .wim Image - You need a copy of the Windows .wim image, which can be downloaded from Install.WIM.
  • USB drive - We need this as the installation media
  • ROCK Pi X - It doesn't matter if the board has OS running already or not, as long as we have proper BIOS installed, we can install a new OS
  • Keyboard/mouse and HDMI monitor for ROCK Pi X - We need to operate on ROCK Pi X
  • Rockpi_x_windows10_installation - It is a small WinPE system, we will use it to complete the deployment of Wim images. Download here rockpi_x_win10_installer.tar.gz
  • Another PC(HOST PC) running Windows or Linux - We need to make bootable USB drive from Rockpi_x_windows10_installation on this PC

Step 1: Make a bootable USB disk from rockpi_x_windows10_installation

Windows HOST

We use rockpi_x_windows10_installation to make a boot disk on Windows:

1. Insert your USB flash drive into the Windows host, we will use the diskpart command tool to format the USB flash drive:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>diskpart

Microsoft DiskPart version 10.0.18362.1

Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation.
On computer: DESKTOP-NT5FLRV

DISKPART> list disk

  Disk ###  Status         Size     Free     Dyn  Gpt
  --------  -------------  -------  -------  ---  ---
  Disk 0    Online           28 GB      0 B        *
  Disk 1    Online           58 GB      0 B

DISKPART> select disk 1

Disk 1 is now the selected disk.

DISKPART> clean

DiskPart succeeded in cleaning the disk.

DISKPART> create partition primary

DiskPart succeeded in creating the specified partition.

DISKPART> active

DiskPart marked the current partition as active.

DISKPART> format fs="ntfs" label="WinDeploy" quick

  100 percent completed

DiskPart successfully formatted the volume.

DISKPART> assign letter=I

DiskPart successfully assigned the drive letter or mount point.

DISKPART> exit

Leaving DiskPart...

2. You will need to download rockpi_x_win10_installer.tar.gz and unzip it to the root directory of the USB flash drive,U disk directory structure is as follows:

.
├── Boot
├── bootmgr
├── DriverInfolist.txt
├── EFI
└── Images


3. You will need to download Install.WIM (You can use the Dism tool to capture the desired .wim image) and put it in the Images directory.

                └── Winre.wim

Linux HOST

On Linux we use rockpi_x_windows10_installation to make a bootable USB drive.

1. First use the gparted tool to format the U disk.

How to install the gparted:

$ sudo apt-get install gparted -y

How to use the gparted:

1.Create partition table.

2. You will need to download rockpi_x_win10_installer.tar.gz and unzip it to the root directory of the USB flash drive,U disk directory structure is as follows:

.
├── Boot
├── bootmgr
├── DriverInfolist.txt
├── EFI
└── Images

3. You will need to download Install.WIM (You can use the Dism tool to capture the desired .wim image) and put it in the Images directory.

├── Boot
├── bootmgr
├── DriverInfolist.txt
├── EFI
└── Images
                ├── '''Install.WIM'''
                ├── unattend.xml
                └── Winre.wim

Step 2: Boot from USB disk

1. Plug the USB drive on ROCK Pi X, if your USB drive is USB 3.0, plug it to the ROCK Pi X USB 3.0 port is preferred.

2. Plug keyboard and HDMI monitor on ROCK Pi X

3. Power on the ROCK Pi X, keep pressing DEL on the keyboard until the BIOS screen is on HDMI

4. Go the last tab [Save & Exit] -> [Boot Override] of BIOS menu, select your USB drive and press Enter to boot.
