USMT 4.0 in MDT

[Bryan]

Not sure if this would go in the MDT or USMT forum, but here goes...

 

I'm using MDT for deploying our images (we only do a few images a day and MDT allows me to have a single image to support), but I'd like to add the ability to use USMT to capture the user state (hardlink) while imaging. We are a K-12 school, so user data can include everything from 20 gigs of pictures and iTunes to a few megs of projects and papers. How would I go about this task- do I need to create a second task sequence for "reimaging" rather than my clean install image? How do add USMT to the WinPE pass? etc. All help is greatly appreciated!

Well, it will be XP and Vista, but then, as machines are reimaged, it'll end up being Windows 7 machines as well. All moving to Windows 7. From what I gather, I have to find a way to run the scanstate in WinPE, but I don't know where I would call it or how I would do it. Thanks for your help- I'm such a noob and I'm trying to figure this out as I go!
