The network drivers does not work if the firmware is not compatible with the driver version. We first have to update the firmware on the Toshiba Dynadock on a Windows PC . Then we are able to do a bare metal installation with the USB flash drive and the Toshiba Dynadock. This is a big disadvantage for Enterprise deployments.

In our opinion a solution would be to have a WinPE driver that works also with older firmware versions (firmware update could be done later when Window 8 is installed) or to have an Firmware Update Tool that runs on WinPE 64-bit.
