SMTSDownloadOnDemand SMTSinWInPE SMTSMediaType Variables

Question

I am using Niall's TS he provides in his FrontEnd HTA ver 1.0. I have noticed that when I PXE boot the hard drive is formatted very early on in the task. However, if I run the task sequence from windows it will not format the drive and I am able to do a "Refresh" by using the TS to make a backup wim and lay down a new version of windows 7.

 

The end result I am after is to be able to PXE boot a machine a do a refresh. I believe the formatting of the drive is being controlled by several condition statements. Is there a way to prevent the machine from formatting the drive so I can do a refresh on a PXE boot?

 

  <step type="SMS_TaskSequence_PartitionDiskAction" name="Format and Partition Disk" description="" runIn="WinPE" successCodeList="0">
           <condition>
             <operator type="or">
               <operator type="and">
                 <expression type="SMS_TaskSequence_VariableConditionExpression">
                   <variable name="Operator">equals</variable>
                   <variable name="Value">TRUE</variable>
                   <variable name="Variable">_SMSTSDownloadOnDemand</variable>
                 </expression>
                 <expression type="SMS_TaskSequence_VariableConditionExpression">
                   <variable name="Operator">equals</variable>
                   <variable name="Value">TRUE</variable>
                   <variable name="Variable">_SMSTSinWInPE</variable>
                 </expression>
               </operator>
               <operator type="and">
                 <expression type="SMS_TaskSequence_VariableConditionExpression">

                   <variable name="Operator">equals</variable>
                   <variable name="Value">FullMedia</variable>
                   <variable name="Variable">_SMSTSMediaType</variable>
                 </expression>
               </operator>
             </operator>
