Notfall-Stick auf Basis Windows7

Veröffentlicht am von

Wer auch im Notfall auf Komfort nicht verzichten möchte, der kann eine Notfallumgebung auf einem Windows7-basierten USB-Stick erstellen. Im PC-Magazin 06/11 wurde ein Verfahren beschrieben, wie Windows 7 (Win PE 3.0) auf einem Rettungs-Stick installiert werden kann. Sie benötigen dazu die Installationsdateien von Windows 7 auf der Setup-DVD. Habe Sie die Setupdateien nicht zur Hand (z.B. aufgrund einer vorinstallierten Win7-OEM-Version) dann können sie hier (eine Microsoft-Website) das 2,3 GB große iso-Image für Windows 7 kostenlos herunterladen. Laden Sie nun die Winbuilder-Umgebung Win7PE_SE  als 7z-Datei herunter und entpacken diese z.B. im Verz. C:\Winbuilder. Sie sollten noch ca. 15 GB freie Festplattenkapazitäten haben und einen leeren mind. 4 GB großen USB-Stick an ihren PC anschließen. Bereiten Sie mit „diskpart“ den Stick so vor, wie es im Blog-Beitrag „Reparaturdatenträger Windows 7“ am Ende beschrieben wurde. Allerdings sollten Sie der Empfehlung folgen, den USB-Stick mit NTFS („format fs=ntfs quick“) und nicht mit Fat32 zu formatieren.

Im Verzeichnis C:\Winbuilder ist nun die Datei “Winbuilder.exe” zu starten. Bei „Source/Source Directory“ verweisen Sie auf die Windows 7 Installationsdateien (z.B. Laufwerksbuchstaben des CD/DVD-Laufwerkes der Setup-DVD). Im linken Teil des Fensters können Sie noch Konfigurationsänderungen vornehmen. Zum Schluß sollten Sie noch auf das Plus-Symbol neben dem Menüeintrag „WriteMedia“ klicken, „Copy to USB-Device“ wählen und hier den Laufwerksbuchstaben des USB-Sticks angeben. Mit „Play“ beginnt die Erstellung des bootfähigen USB-Sticks. Es folgt noch eine Neuformatierung des Sticks (am besten NTFS Schnellformatierung wählen) und der grub4dos-Installer 1.1, der zur Auswahl des USB-Laufwerkes auffordert. Fertig ist der bootfähige Notfall-USB-Stick.

Als Bootmanager kommt auf dem erstellten Notfall-Stick grub4dos 0.4.4 zum Einsatz. Die Netzwerkkarte meines Core i3 Notebooks wurde erkannt, allerdings nicht mein WLAN-Modul. Standardmäßig ist der Opera 11.0 Browser, Remote-Registry, Datei-Explorer und die Systemstartreparatur installiert. Weitere Windows-Tools und Treiber können über einen wiederholten Aufruf des WinBuilders auf dem USB-Stick integriert werden.

Im WinBuilder kann im linken Fenster zusätzlich unter „Drivers“ der Eintrag „Driver Package Installer“ ausgewählt werden. Zusätzlich würde ich in der Auswahlliste weiter unten noch das Tool „BGInfo“ hinzunehmen. Da in der Standardkonfiguration mein WLAN-Treiber „Realtek RTL8191SE WLAN 802.11n PCI-E-NIC“ nicht erkannt wurde, habe ich zusätzlich das WLAN-Treiber-Paket für Windows 7 (x86) heruntergeladen, wo auch der Realtek-Treiber meines Core i3 Notebooks beinhaltet ist (eine Textdatei im Treiberpaket listet die verfügbare Treiber auf). Das Treiberpaket wurde nach „C:\Winbulider\Projects\Win7PE_SE\Drivers\ <folder>“ extrahiert. Danach wurde die Winbuilder-Installation mit „Play“ erneut angestoßen. Ergänzend habe ich nach Fertigstellung der Generierung des USB-Sticks die Treiberdateien auch unter USB-Stick-Laufwerk\DriverPacks abgelegt. Nach dem Booten der Live-Umgebung des USB-Sticks konnte ich unter Startmenü/ Computermanagement/ Drives den Eintrag „Dpinst GUI choose Folder“ auswählen und starten. Als Treiberquelle habe ich im Verzeichnis „USB-Stick-Laufwerk\DriverPacks“ den passenden Realtek-WLAN-Treiber ausgewählt und installiert. Nun wird über „PE Netzwerk“ das WLAN-Modul erkannt und ich kann durch Eingabe des WLAN-Schlüssels den Internetzugang per WLAN starten.

Im WinBuilder kann auch (rein technisch) das iso-File der Hiren’s Boot-CD (siehe dazu passenden Blog) integriert werden. Aus lizenztechnischen Gründen ist die Nutzung der Hiren’s Boot-CD und deren Anwendungen allerdings nicht gestattet.

Notfall-DVD auf Basis Windows Vista

Wer lieber auf eine Windows-Umgebung im Notfall setzt, kann mit der im folgenden beschriebenen Vorgehensweise eine Windows Vista DVD erstellen. Im Computer-Magazin com! 06/09 wurde ein Verfahren beschrieben, wie Windows Vista PE (Win PE 2.0) auf einer Rettungs-DVD installiert werden kann. Falls keine Setup-DVD für Vista verfügbar ist, können die erforderlichen Systemdateien als 1,2 GB große ISO-Datei auch kostenlos über die Entwicklungsumgebung Windows Automated Installation Kit (AIK) heruntergeladen werden. Die ISO-Datei muss nach dem Download auf eine DVD gebrannt werden. Nun ist das AIK (Vor.: MS .NET Framework 2.0, MSXML 6.0) auf dem PC zu installieren. Nach Abschluß der Installation ist ein Neustart des PCs erforderlich. Laden Sie bei WinBuilder die Vista PE Umgebung als zip-Datei herunter und entpacken diese z.B. im Verz. C:\Winbuilder. In diesem Verzeichnis ist nun die Datei „Winbuilder.exe“ zu starten. Wählen Sie zuerst das Vistape.net/project aus und danach im linken Verzeichnisbaum die Installationsmethode „complete“ aus dem Dropdown-Menü. Geben Sie nun als „Source directory“ den Pfad zum AIK (per default: C:\Programme\Windows AIK) an. Im Hauptfenster des Winbuilders klicken Sie auf das Pluszeichen vor „Base“ und markieren Sie „PreConfig“. Auch hier ist der Pfad zu AIK einzugeben. Grub4Dos soll nicht zum Einsatz kommen, es ist also auszuklicken. Ebenso ist die Option „Explorer Shell“ auszuklicken. In der Rubrik „Addons“ sind die Haken bei „MMC“, „PENetCfg“ und „FileSharing“ zu entfernen. In der Rubrik App können nun nach Belieben die auf die DVD zu installierenden Applikationen ausgewählt werden. Zum Schluß starten Sie im WinBuilder die Generierung einer iso-Datei (Ablage unter C:\Winbuilder\iso) mit „Play“. Die hoffentlich erfolgreich erstellte iso-Datei ist nun auf eine DVD zu brennen.

Die Notfall-DVD auf Basis Win PE 2.0 bietet vollständigen Netzwerksupport und eine voll funktionsfähige Hardware-Erkennung. Über die Winbuilder-Installation werden zahlreiche SW-Produkte integriert. Portable Applikationen können das Portfolio ergänzen. Per Skript lassen sich weitere Tools in die Winbuilder-Umgebung einfügen. Als Virenscanner kommt Avira Antivir Personal zum Einsatz, als Browser der IE7. Win PE 2.0 bietet allerdings weniger Rettungswerkzeuge als Win PE 3.0 (mit Windows 7).

Notfall-Stick auf Basis Windows XP

Der ein oder andere fühlt sich auch in Notfallsituationen in seiner vertrauten Windows-Umgebung wohler und setzt auch lieber Windows-basierte Tools zur Rettung ein. Im Computer-Magazin com! 10/09 wurde ein Verfahren beschrieben, wie Windows XP auf einem USB-Stick installiert werden kann. Bei dieser Vorgehensweise wird auf eine Bart/Vista PE Lösung verzichtet. Bei der Virtual PC basierten com!-Lösung sind jedoch die Installationsdateien bzw. die Setup-CD für Windows XP erforderlich. Eine OEM-Recovery-Lösung per CD reicht mit hoher Wahrscheinlichkeit nicht aus. Somit sind folgende SW-Produkte Voraussetzung für das Erstellen des XP-USB-Sticks:

Die Vorgehensweise zur Erstellung des USB-Sticks soll hier nur kurz beschrieben werden.

Der USB-Stick ist mit dem HP-Tool mit FAT32 zu formatieren. Aus der Windows Embedded Umgebung sind sechs Dateien für den EWF-Treiber (ewf.sys, ewfapi.dll, ewfdll.dll, ewfinit.dll, ewfmgr.exe, ewfntldr) zu extrahieren, die für einen Schreibschutz auf dem USB-Stick sorgen. Windows XP ist nun in einer virtuellen Umgebung (z.B. mit Virtual PC) zu installieren und danach ist das Usboot Tool in der erstellten VM auszuführen. Die EWF-Treiber werden im ersten Schritt in die VM-Umgebung integriert. Usboot kopiert die VM im letzten Schritt auf den USB-Stick.  Schließlich kann mit dem EWF-Manager der EWF-Treiber enabled und disabled werden. Als Ergebnis bekommt man einen XP-basierten USB-Stick, der sich jetzt mit beliebigen portablen Windows-Applikationen/Tools ergänzen läßt.

Im nächsten Beitrag wird eine Vista PE basierte Lösung vorgestellt, die auch ohne Setup-CD funktioniert. Danach folgen Windows 7 basierte USB-Stick-Lösungen für den Notfalleinsatz.

Hiren’s Boot CD 15.1 ist eine fertig installierte Windows-basierte Live-CD, die ähnlich wie die zuvor vorgestellten Ultimate Boot-CDs zahlreiche Diagnose- und Analyse-Tool auf Windows-Basis enthält. Die sehr umfangreiche Live-CD (ca. 500 MB) basiert ebenfalls auf XP-Windows PE (Preinstalled Environment, grub4dos 0.4.5b) und beinhaltet Benchmark-Tools, Imaging-Tools, BIOS-Tools, Kennwort-Tools und vieles mehr. Die sehr unfangreiche Liste der SW-Produkte finden Sie hier. Die Live-CD bietet eine gute HW-Unterstützung, da z.B. mein Core i3 Notebook mit einer 800*600 Auflösung startet und das WLAN-Modul erkannt wird.

Die Nutzung der Windows-Umgebung (Start Mini XP) in der Live-CD ist allerdings illegal, da es dafür keine Erlaubnis von Microsoft gibt. Auch einige Tools der CD lassen sich gesetzwidrig einsetzen.

Ultimate Boot-CD for Windows

Veröffentlicht am von

Die Ultimate Boot-CD for Windows ist eine Windows-basierte Live-CD, die ähnlich wie die zuvor vorgestellt Ultimate Boot-CD zahlreiche Diagnose- und Analyse-Tool nun auf Windows-Basis enthält. Die Live-CD wird mit dem Bart PE Grundmodul erstellt, welches eine XP-basierte PE („pre-install“) Umgebung als Quelldateien verwendet. Im Regelfall wird die eigene Windows-XP-Installation (mind. mit SP1) oder Windows 2003 Server als Datenquelle für die Boot-CD verwendet. Insofern ist die generierte Live-CD mit Netzwerkanbindung für das Referenzsystem gut geeignet; andere Systeme sind jedoch meist nicht mit der erstellen Live-CD zu untersuchen. Windows-Versionen ohne XP/2003-Logo taugen als Datenquelle überhaupt nicht. Mit dem BTS Treiber-Plugin können weitere Treiber in die Live-CD Umgebung integriert werden. Die letzte Version 3.6 vom 21.06.2010 des speziellen PE Builders kann von der Projekt-Homepage heruntergeladen werden.

Eine Liste der installierbaren Windows-Tools der Live-CD finden Sie hier. Die Liste enthält Anti-Spyware- und Anti-Viren-Tools, Brenn-Tools, Festplatten-Tools (Backup/Kloning, Analyse, Defragmentierung, Partitionierung, sicheres Löschen, etc.), Dateimanagement-, Netzwerk-, Passwort- und Registry-Tools, Tools für Systeminformationen, Firefox-Browser, IrfanView, etc.
