    I need to find a way to eject the CD/DVD drive when a script completes and then shutdown the computer.

    Here is a breakdown of what I want to accomplish:

    1. Insert WinPE CD and a USB(with image on it) into a computer and reboot.

    2. WinPE loads and Auto Runs a script that images the computer from the .pbf on the USB drive.

    3. When the imaging completes the CD tray ejects and the computer shutsdown.


    ---------------------------------------------------------------------

    Here are the issues that I run into:

    1. Depending on the amount of drives in different computers the USB drive will have a different drive letter. Need a way to assign the USB drive to a specific letter on WinPE startup.

    2. I don't see a command in PSL to eject the cd tray. Is there a way to call a different file or .exe from within PSL? I'm thinking AutoIT or something may work here.

    3. What is the proper script line for shutting down the computer and where would I put that in my script.

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------

    Here is my script that Auto Runs on WinPE load:

    Code:
    // This file was automatically generated by {VENDOR_NAME} script generator
    // Use {VENDOR_NAME} Script Interpretator to run this file
    // Time of creation: Tue Aug 09 16:50:12 2011

    call check_error
    
    // Apply all scheduled operations
    apply all
    
    // Check for errors
    call check_error
    
    // Exiting
    // exit(0)
    
    // Function for checking error
    check_error:
    	if (errorcode(1) != 0)
    	then
    		print "Some error occured: "
    		strerror(errorcode(1))
    		print ""
    		print "Exiting"
    		print ""
    		exit(errorcode(1))
    	endif
    endcall
