Hi, I am trying to add some steps to install windows updates offline in a UDI MDT task sequence as per the instructions here. http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/jsandys/archive/2011/04/10/software-updates-and-osd-revisited.aspx
It looks like there is now an issue parsing the unattend.xml as I now get the error "Windows setup encounted an internal error while searching for an unattend". The problem is very similar to http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/5093-invalid-character-in-unattendxml-file-causing-windows-7-service-pack-1-offline-language-pack-installation-failure/ but with updates instread of lang packs.
If I remove the steps I don't get the issue. I checked the unattend.xml and it adds the updates to the servicing section and it does seem ok, guess something isnt though.
Appreciate any thoughts here ...
