deployment of windows 7

Question

I've been playing around with SCCM for approx. 2 weeks now on and off... Your website helped me out a great deal with the walk-throughs (along with a training video and the corresponding Microsoft book).

 

I am running SCCM2007 on Windows Server 2008 Standard 86x.

 

I am currently stuck on deployment of windows 7 using WinPE to capture the image-did a bit of digging and realised the majority of my images will not work because their compression rate was not set as 'maximum'. So i deployed the original image onto a system and re-captured it using WinPE (cmd: imagex /compress maximum /capture C: C:\win7.wim "win7").

Captured successfully but when I right click Boot Images in SCCM, and use the 'add boot image package wizard' its as if there is no boot image within the .wim file. (I have successfully deployed the image itself manually myself though.

 

 

 

 

Am I missing a command paramenter? A misconfiguration in SCCM itself?

 

Thanks in advance and I hope that I posted this in the correct section.

great! one step closer...

i followed the guide anyweb gave me and configuired the multi tasking fully (http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/1061-using-multiple-task-sequences-via-pxe/)

now that i have done-would i be able to simply boot up the client computer and it'd automatically boot off pxe and apply the image?

Once i try to PXE boot, the clients get stuck on the DHCP....... loader.

 

I have the PXE service port configuired

I created a collection group for named MultiTask (like in the walkthrough)

I have the Microsoft COnfig Manager CLient Installation 4.0 under software distru\packages

I have the task sequence configuired under operating system deployment

 

What else am i missing guys?

Did you advertise the Task Sequence to the collection?

 

yup.

 

it just stays stuck in the dhcp...there has to be specific settings that i'd have to setup on the dhcp server to make it advertise its services to clients
