Joriz Posted February 21, 2013 Report post Posted February 21, 2013 I've setup an SCCM 2012 SP1 environment to deploy Windows 8 x64. In the configuration manager you have 2 options: Operating system images and Operating System installers. In the manuals i've been reading, since SP1 you can directly import the WIM file from the Windows OS disk into Operating System images. So i did this and created a task sequence to migrate a Windows XP to Windows 8 with USMT. In the tasksequence i also did use an unattended xml file which i created as a package (no program) before. When deploying this task sequence to a machine, the unattended xml is not applied. I have have set the keyboard layout in the xml file. I didn't find a solution so far, searched with google but nothing found. Just for testing purpose, i did import the WIM file from the Windows OS disk into Operating System Installers instead of Operating System Images. The different between is: the installer should hold the sources file, the images should hold a captured wim file. Now. The unattended xml file is only applying when i use a tasksequence on the operating system installers and not the operating system images. This is strange because should be fixed in SP1, but it doesn't? What should i do? Should i create a captured WIM file instead of using the WIM file directly of the Windows OS disk in Operating System images?

Oneone Posted February 22, 2013 Report post Posted February 22, 2013 Have you created a new task sequance AFTER upgrading to SP1? also you have to check "partition and format the target computer Before installing the operating system" also the unattend should work have you updated the package to the dp with the right xml?

Joriz Posted February 22, 2013 Report post Posted February 22, 2013 Hi I did use SC2012_SP1_RTM_SCCM_SCEP, SP1 should allready be in. I also do have the partitation and format task in the TS. The package with the XML is also distributed to both DP's. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joriz Posted February 23, 2013 Report post Posted February 23, 2013 The Windows 7 method did worked for Windows 8. Create a Build/Capture TS and deploy it to a Windows 8 machine, use the WIM image as source. The unattend.xml package will apply now.

Oneone Posted February 25, 2013 Report post Posted February 25, 2013 What did you do to make it work? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joriz Posted February 25, 2013 Report post Posted February 25, 2013 I did a build/capture TS first and imported the wim file into operating system images. The unattend.xml did applied. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
