   For example: x86 (32-bit), x64 (64-bit).
   
   Make sure your computer that you will target matches the CPU type you will specify later.
   
   Write down what processor architecture, you need to remember that. , Note:
   If you choose a CD or DVD, your image file of your system must be smaller than 1G.
   
   We will talk about the image file later. ,, This allows us to do anything to the system files stored in the image file we are going to change. ,, The image file is 120MB.
   
   If you install it on a CD as a live filesystem, then you are not able to save anything.
   
   Type the following command in the Deployment Tools Command Prompt: copype _Your_Chosen_Processor_Architecture_ C:\PathWhereYouWantToStoreTheImageFile.
   
   Example: copype x64 X:\Data\MyWindowsOS , So you have created our image (if it has been done right) and now you need to mount it so that you can change its contents.
   
   Type the following: imagex /mountrw PathOfImage 1 PathOfImageFolder/mount.
   
   Example: imagex /mountrw X:\MWOS\winpe.wim 1 X:\MWOS\mount. , When you are done with modifying its contents, type imagex /unmount MountPointPath /commit.
   
   Example: imagex /unmount X:\MWOS\mount /commit ,, Type: oscdimg
   -n
   -bPathOfImageFolder\etfsboot.com PathOfImageFolder\ISO PathIfImageFolder\winpe_x86.iso ,
