Hi All, I'm using the following group of products: Windows 2012 (not R2) SCCM 2012 R2 Win PE 4.0 My goal is to deploy a Linux distribution by created an OSD task sequence, following these model: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/steverac/archive/2014/01/02/osd-for-linux-imaging-yes-really.aspx http://systemcenter.no/?p=509 I recognize that this is not supported by design, but dd is a simple enough tool that I am hoping I can make this work easily. So the Order of operations is: 1) Attach to remote location with dd executable and image we're trying to deploy 2) Clean disk on client 3) run command : "dd if=image.bin of=\\?\harddisk0\partition0 bs=4M --progress" However I'm running into the error 80070057, among others you'll see in the logs. Some details: for reasons outside the scope of this task, I am aiming to deploy to the entire disk. Reserving a partition will, I think, break the update system on my linux distro. Willing to try anything - would love to get some help! Here's the log (also attached): https://gist.github.com/smithforrestr/a83d6b154bc459eea62e#file-smsts-log smsts.txt
