The request

Hi!
I adopted few things from youtuber linkarzu](https://linkarzu.com/posts/docker-practical/windows11-netbootxyz/) to your addon
That files was help to skip TPM(and another shit checks from Microsoft) and using autounattented.xml
DONT FORGET TO SET set win_base_url first!
Here is guide how to use it
1)Extract config folder to your Windows PE folder, for example - netboot\image\win-pe
2)Now open in web-ui windows.ipxe, than right BELOW kernel http://${boot_domain}/wimboot string add

initrd ${win_base_url}/configs/auto.bat auto.bat
initrd ${win_base_url}/configs/winpeshl.ini winpeshl.ini
initrd ${win_base_url}/configs/config.ini config.ini

and save changes
3)Now go to extacted config folder and open config.ini
You see 2 strings, SAMBASERVER and PASSWORD
Theyve already contain examples but you must use own if they different
SAMBASERVER must contain your samba server ip or hostname
PASSWORD is your samba password
Change that strings to yours values and close files,dont forget to save changes!
4)Open auto.bat
Here u must determine few values,strings already have values ​​that are used by default BUT you must check all twice, maybe your values are different
For example my netboot files are here homeassistant.local\MEDIA\netboot so i fill up strings
set SHARE=MEDIA
set SETUP_PATH=netboot\image\windows\sources
set USERNAME=homeassistant
set ANSWER_FILE_NAME=autounattend.xml
set ANSWER_FILE_PATH=netboot\image\win-pe\configs
Dont forget to put your autounattend.xml file - attached in archive is empty

If you do all correct - after choosing Load Microsoft Windows Installer... - script automatically mount your samba share and launch Windows setup
