Make sure you are running OSD Module 21.4.15.4 or newer. There was a bug in the previous version that will make this fail
So you want to use your custom WIM wth OSDCloud? This is how you do it. This is a LOCAL wim file for now, but this will be expanded to download a wim from a URL in the near future
In your OSDCloud Workspace, you have an OS directory. Put your WIM in here. In my case, I downloaded the Windows Server 2022 Insider Preview ISO and simply expanded it with 7-Zip. Don't over-complicate this and make it difficult. Give it a path so you know what it is
If you are using an OSDCloud USB, then the process is similar, put it in the OSDcloud\OS directory of your OSDCloud partition. Again, don't over-complicate this
It is important for you to remember this about the Path. For OSDCloud to find it, it must be in a similar path (which is recursed)
That said, if my OSDCloud Workspace is at D:\OSDCloud, and I am in a Virtual Machine on the same computer, I can simply Map a Network Drive using DaRT if you have it installed, or a command line. Make sure you don't map to an OS Drive Letter (C: R: S: X:) and you'll be fine. I use O: for OSDCloud personally
None. If you are on a Physical computer and you put it in the OSDCloud OS path, then you're fine
I always recommend installing the newest OSD Module first, then get cracking. You will be presented with a Menu to select your Wim and Image Index
The ones you know and love are all there
