Fill it out like this: C:\BootCamp\brigadier.exe -install -keep-files -output-dir=C:\BootCamp Next we want to add another Run Command Line step, immediately after, called "Run Brigadier". This will copy all files within the specified folder and create a destination folder called "BootCamp" on the target machine's root drive. Mine looks like this: xcopy.exe "%deployroot%\BootCamp\Brigadier\*.*" "c:\BootCamp" /Q /H /E /I /Y Fill out the Command line field in the Properties pane with an xcopycommand, referencing your folder where Brigadier is stored.
Create a "Run Command Line" item inside and name it "Copy Brigadier". I use a BootCamp folder to hold various packages within their own subfolders, like so: %deployroot%\BootCamp\BrigadierĬreate a new Group/Folder called BootCamp in the State Restore phase of your Task Sequence.
I've found that Brigadier works best with MDT when it is copied to the local machine-I've had cases of it not executing properly/failing the Task Sequence when run as an Application or from the network share.ĭownload Brigadier and place it in a folder in the root of your deployment share.

It's even possible to point Brigadier at an internally hosted mirror of Apple's Software Update repositories, hosted with something like Reposado, to reduce the amount of outbound network traffic and increase the speed of driver downloads.įor Windows 7 it may be more efficient to actually download specific bootcamp driver packages and poll model info to install the BC drivers directly with MDT, as that is the fastest way of getting our files onto client machines.įor newer versions of Windows, Apple has shifted from making the BootCamp driver packages directly available from a webpage, and although you can download them with BootCamp Assistant or Brigadier, it's difficult to know which drivers will work for which model.īrigadier automates this for us anyway, so generally going forward, the best solution is to use it in tandem with an internally hosted repository(although it works quite well without, just not quite as speedy). One of the best is using Brigadier, a great tool made by Tim Sutton that automates the download and installation of Apple BootCamp Drivers from Apple's own software repositories.īrigadier polls the local machine for its model info, and grabs the appropriate BootCamp software package, just like BootCamp Assistant on OSX, but in an automate-able fashion that resides entirely in Windows, so there's no need to monkey around with copying drivers to USB keys and then back again.
It's during this we can do important customizations of the live OS, and pretty much automate anything that you want, install additional drivers, packages, scripts etc.Īnyway, we're going to be installing BootCamp drivers. Once we're booted into Windows proper, the computer enters what's known as the State Restore Phase of the Task Sequence.
