Recently I had a requirement to create a bootable WinPE iso image, i looked around an thought there would be some kind of general community script around but could not find one.

This requirement required that all network card drivers were installed and thus creating a one size fits all bootable ISO which could then be used to “net use” a remote network share and start the installation of Windows 2008.

This is the script I came up with. Its fairly simple. all you have to do is download the network drivers from the BTS download page here: http://driverpacks.net/driverpacks/windows/xp/x86/lan you can also download eg mass storage drivers if required.

I recently got my WordPress site up and running.
I had a need to have a “Parent Page” which would dynamically lists its child pages as a list. Example

Initially I thought there would be a method to call the wp_list_pages() function from the page content but I couldn’t find how (or doesn’t exist).

I explored my options there was exec-php however I didn’t want add any potential security holes by allowing php code to be executed (I have been stung in the past with something similar).

Searching through the internet, I couldn’t find any help out

I ended up creating a custom pages template.

I was searching through the net looking for some way to place a horizontal menu at the top header for my new WordPress site. Finally I found a site which pointed/guided me to editing the “header.php” of my theme “Default” (the one which comes with WordPress)
