PXE/WinPE2 boot CD

[vstevenson]

I've got a good one here.

WAN machines can be PXE'd or booted with WinPE2 cd without any issue for the exception of one. Upon a successful PXE with the boot.wim downloaded properly, systems require that I remove the CD......which of course wasn't used in the 1st place nor was it physically in the cd drive.

As Captain Kirk says, "weird or what".

setting up a small trial where I've changed the OST sequence property of my windows xp install to "boot image (x64) vice X86)and left my windows xp package assigned to the actual deployment task seq. Will trial it on a 64 bit Dell here in a second. I am pretty sure it will blow up quite quickly.

In short, a 64 bit machine, Xp SP3 install with 64 bit boot.

You can't deploy a x86 OS from a x64 boot image.

I know this. I'm at the point of what the &*^%
