so did your image have one index or two ?

CU6 is most likely replaced with a newer update since I wrote the guide, however i went and downloaded it again and ended up with the following file extracted SQLServer2008R2-KB2679367-x64.exe what did you end up with when you extracted it ? the file I chose to download was SQL Server 2008 R2 All (Global) x64 SQLServer2008R2_SP1_CU6_2679367_10_50_2811_x64

you can edit the config file for Language options, see this post, scroll down to Language Configuration

tomorrow should be ok for me, send me a message on this forum and i'll reply back when i'm ready (I'm in Europe)

In Part 1 of this mini series we integrated Windows Intune with System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager. In Part 2 we added Support for iOS devices (Iphone, iPad). In Part 3 we learned the difference between App Package for iOS (*.ipa file) and applications from the Apple App Store. We learned how to deploy them to iOS devices and configured the deployment type so that the applications were made available to the user based on the iPhone or Ipad operating system version, in addition we also checked device Ownership information and deployed the application based on those requirements. In Part 4 we learned how to use and configure compliance settings in order to enable or disable certain configurable features on iOS devices. We enforced a Password requirement and enforced a minimum password length as this is a common requirement for organizations. In Part 5 we enabled support for Windows 8.1 devices (both Windows RT 8.1 and Windows 8.1 Enterprise) so that they could be managed via System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager integrated with Windows Intune. In Part 6 we deployed Windows 8.1 apps (appx) to Windows 8.1 devices. In Part 7 we looked at how to make Windows 8.1 store apps available in the Company Portal and how to make them featured apps with their own categories. In Part 8 we added support for Android and learned how to deploy mobile device settings to Android devices. We enforced a Password requirement and saw how to enable File encryption on Android devices and we used resource explorer to browse the phone properties and to see if the device was a Jailbroken or rooted device. In this Part, we will learn how to deploy native APK (Android application package file) apps and how to deploy apps from Google Play. We'll learn that Available deployments to Users work but Available deployments to devices fail and we'll see how to make our deployed app featured apps within the Company Portal and with their own categories. Step 1. Create an App Package for Android (*.apk) In the Configuration Manager console, select the Software Library, expand applications, and navigate to our previously created folders called Modern Applications (created in Part 3 of this series, you can download the powershell script in Step 1 here), and then to the subfolder called Android. Right click and choose Create Application as shown in the screenshot below:- Select App Package for Android (*.APK files) from the Type drop down menu and then browse to the UNC path of where you have downloaded your Android App. I downloaded the following sample app which I found after doing a quick search. you'll be informed that the wizard has successfully imported the App Package fill in some General Information about the App Package and click your way through the rest of the wizard until completion Step 2. Distribute our app to the cloud Now that we have created our app, we need to distribute it to our cloud Distribution Point (Windows Intune DP) so that our Intune Users can download the content. To distribute the app, right click it and choose Distribute Content. Review selected content You'll be shown what content is going to be distributed, it's only one app, so that's all you'll see listed In the content destination screen, click the Add drop down and select Distribution Point from the choices available as in the screenshot below You'll see that MANAGE.MICROSOFT.COM is already selected, click Ok. continue through the wizard until completion You can monitor the distribution of your App in DistMgr.log and also using the outgoingcontentmanager.log which records content uploaded to Windows Intune. and in the Configuration Manager console, we can see that app's content status in the Monitoring Node by right clicking on the Asset Details and choose More Details which will give us details of that status Once you have verified that the content has successfully distributed you can continue with the next step. Step 3. Deploy the App Now we want to make our Intune Users aware of the new app, to do so, we will deploy it. Right click on our Android app and choose Deploy This brings up another wizard, for Target Collection click on browse, and select our previously created Windows Intune Users collection the content screen will show our previously distributed content, and the next screen allows us to select the Action (install or uninstall) and purpose (Available or Required), if you want the user to have no choice, then select Required, or if you want the users to have a choice in installing this app choose a purpose of Available Note: The way you deploy apps to mobile devices or mobile device users using Windows Intune Integration with Configuration Manager (hybrid scenario) will decide the outcome of the deployment (i.e. whether it works or not). For example, you can only deploy apps with an Available purpose to Users, however you can deploy apps with a Required purpose to Users and Devices. In other words, if you deploy an App with an Available purpose and target it to a Device collection then nothing will happen (the App will not appear in the Company Portal). Click your way through the rest of the wizard until completion Step 4. Create an App using Google Play Apps from the App Store (Google Play) can also be made available in the Company Portal. To do so we once again start the Create Application Wizard. Navigate to our previously created folders called Modern Applications and then to the subfolder called Android, and to the subfolder within that called Google Play. Right click and choose Create Application as shown in the screenshot below:- Select App Package for Android on Google Play in the Type drop down menu and then click browse Google play should open, click on Apps on the left of the google play menu In the Apps menu, browse via Category and select the Google Play app you want to make available to your Android users, I find it easier to find apps by maximizing the screen. In the screenshot below i've chosen Business as the Category and then selected Microsoft Remote Desktop from the list of available apps (many many apps). Select the app by clicking on it, it will bring up some additional options like Install and Add to wishlist, but you should not click on either, instead click on OK Now you should see the Google Play url for the app you selected has populated itself in the Location field enter some details about the app... and continue to the end of that wizard. Step 5. Deploy the Google Play Android App. As Google Play apps are already distributed in Googles own 'store' there's no need for us to distribute them to a distribution point, all we need to do is to Deploy the App, so let's do that, same as step 3 above. Right click on the App, choose Deploy Select the Windows Intune Users User collection and continue through the wizard until completion. Step 6. Make the App a Featured App and Categorize it Select the Remote Desktop App we just added, right click it, and choose Properties, then select the Application Catalog tab, place a checkmark in the Display this as a featured app and highlight it in the Company Portal as shown below Next click on the Edit button to the right of User Categories and then click on Create to create a Category, give the new category a suitable name like Android Google Play app Click Apply and then click OK to close. Step 7. Verify the end user experience on an Android device Now all the hard work is done, it's time to see the fruits of our labor, log on to an Android Device, start up the company portal and enter your credentials when prompted Once the Company Portal has loaded, it's quite likely that the Android device will not have received any new policy yet, so the applications we deployed above won't appear in the Company Portal (yet), if this is the case, wait and then try again. After the policy has finally taken, your Deployed apps appear in the company portal Success :-) Troubleshooting If your apps are not installing please do read my note above in Step 3.

how about this ? http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/7772-how-can-i-change-a-hkcu-setting-within-windows-during-an-osd-deployment/

just looked, right click on your WIM file in the console and you'll be able to see the properties of it, and figure out which of the index's to use, it's likely it's index 2:2, in my screenshot below i'm showing a captured wim with only one index,

ok, do you have the possibility of doing a remote session via teamviewer and i can take a look ?

look at the OPTIONS tab of the format and partition disk 6.1 step that it's failing on, see anything interesting ? the screenshots you showed above seem to be from a UDI task sequence can you guide me through the exact steps you've taken when starting the ts, did you specify to capture any user data ?

no that's not the issue, do you have a StateStore folder on any of your drives ? what MDT task sequence template did you use when you created your new MDT task sequence, I can recreate one here and step through it.

it see's a folder called StateStore on D:\, and denys the format because of the presence of that folder, so, does that folder exist and why ? were you doing some 'refresh/reinstallation' tests prior to this, can you manually delete that folder in windows and try again >?

ok odd, can you please attach your SMSTS.log file here from this failed deployment, that should reveal the reason behind the failure

Microsoft has decided to issue a patch for the recent Zero Day for XP users after all, read below for more info We have made the decision to issue a security update for Windows XP users. Windows XP is no longer supported by Microsoft, and we continue to encourage customers to migrate to a modern operating system, such as Windows 7 or 8.1. Additionally, customers are encouraged to upgrade to the latest version of Internet Explorer, IE 11. more info > http://blogs.technet.com/b/msrc/archive/2014/05/01/out-of-band-release-to-address-microsoft-security-advisory-2963983.aspx

I can't imagine why it wouldn't work, i mean it's just a collection after all, so go ahead, and try it

how re you kicking it off, in WinPE or in Windows ?

it's failing to format the disc because d:\statestore exists, so, are you attempting a refresh (reinstallation with user data migration) or a new computer scenario here ? can you show us what your task sequence looks like (screenshot of this step)

I haven't tried it, please do and let us know the results

well who knows what this means, we all hope for the best however

Microsoft is scrambling to repair a security hole in its widely used Internet Explorer web browser, saying it had detected attempts to exploit the flaw. The US software giant said in a blog post the coding problem affected versions six through 11 of its flagship browser, noting it was aware of "limited, targeted attacks" taking advantage of the newly discovered flaw. The exploit uses Flash and a technique called heap feng shui, which Microsoft says can allow an attacker who successfully exploits the vulnerability to gain the same user rights as a user. "The vulnerability may corrupt memory in a way that could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user within Internet Explorer," Microsoft said on its security website on Saturday. "An attacker could host a specially crafted website that is designed to exploit this vulnerability through Internet Explorer and then convince a user to view the website." Cybersecurity firm FireEye, which took credit for identifying the flaw, said hackers were exploiting the bug in a campaign nicknamed "Operation Clandestine Fox." Users still relying on Windows XP could be especially vulnerable because Microsoft stopped earlier this month supporting the older operating system with security patches and other software updates. read more @ ZDnet > http://www.zdnet.com/xp-users-set-to-miss-out-on-ie-patch-7000028820/

sure

is the hardware UEFI ? are you deploying a UEFI capable task sequence ? if not, diskpart it first and try again

verify that the date/time on this computer is correct (in the bios)
