Hello all,
I have used sccm 2012sp1 Task Sequence Prestaged Media and captured a wim file. now I am trying to stage it on a HD so that I can use our drive imager. problem is after staging the wim file using a task sequence does not produce a bootable OS.
I followed this guide here http://blogs.technet.com/b/configurationmgr/archive/2011/01/11/how-to-stage-task-sequence-prestaged-media-on-a-hard-drive-in-configuration-manager-2007.aspx
The major difference I see is with the system partition the 350mb volume created during the normal TS. when I look at the captured wim it only has 1 index so I am guessing that it does not have the system partition used for booting.
in my staging TS I have it create both partitions just like I do in the capture TS and format and apply the wim to the windows volume that all seems to work, but the system will not boot. I do not think the system partition is being updated with boot information or something similar. I am using a very basic image at this early stage in development using only sccm at this point in time until I have a need for MDT.
Any suggestions on how to make this work?
Also where are the best practice guides for deploying windows 7? especially with using sccm 2012 or sp1 since they keep changing OSD quite a bit between patches.
