Well, I answer to myself. Create a Profile in the mdt only with the necesary for the deploy. Create a Media task with the profile created. boot in pe mode. create a primary partition with around of 20 gigs of space. conect to the server and copy all the content of media in that partition. Enable boot from that partition with bootsect. Done. Start the computer and begin the task sequence process. the gather local script will detect automatically the partitions. At the end, the partition will be extend to the maximum and the deploy folders will deleted. Cheers.

Hi Everyone, I need deploy some images with mdt 2010, the issue is deploy an offline image applied on the hard disk of those computers, so when the final user turn on the computer, the wim boot starts and ask to the user for the task sequence to deploy, without any media. How can do that? Thanks in advanced.

HI everyone. I need deploy some servers but this servers have various sizes in disk How can I make Custom partition sizes in MDT 2010? I found this link but when I tried deploy this method but the ZTIUtility script fail http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/mdt/thread/0ef8734e-1db5-469a-9950-ffe1808f4a6d/ somebody have a similar solution working on? thanks a lot

Hi Guys, i have a geek question, somebody knows how Call the Network ID wizard directly from Shell? I can call system properties with this command: rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL sysdm.cpl,,1 or C:\Windows\System32\SystemPropertiesComputerName.exe But the Network ID wizard can´t find it, I need it to deploy some computers outside the domain and later inside the domain and in the first run call the wizard. Somebody have any idea? invent or something. Thanks Brothers cheers B)

Perhaps somebody have the same problem. After googleit all day, I resolved it issue with this method On the server 2008 -Remove powershell from features. -Reboot -install powershell again. -Reboot -apply all patch from WSUS . So server is up to date. -reboot -Repair WAIK -Repair MDT 2010 -Reboot -and now it´s working strange and maybe far away for an offical method but works cheers

Hi guys, My MDT server have a seriously problem; when I want rebuild my Deployment point I got the follow message. === Making sure the deployment share has the latest x86 tools === === Processing LiteTouchPE (x86) boot image === Building requested boot image profile.

Hey peeps, can you please read this: http://neosmart.net/blog/2007/bootsectexe-modifies-the-bootsector-not-the-mbr/ then re-read attentively: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc749177(WS.10).aspx and then convince yourselves that although the MS guys used a set of very confusing terms: the "master boot code for hard disk partitions" is the CODE in the bootsector or PBR and NOT the MBR (which bootsect.exe won't even touch) The MBR is the Master Boot Record and it is accessible through the \\.\PhysicalDriveN kind of object ONLY. The PBR is the partition bootrecord and it is accessible through a drive letter (LogicalDrive). The normal MBR does NOT contain code invoking ANY loader, it simply loads first sector (the PBR or bootsector) of the active partition found in it's partition table. The PBR or bootsector contains code invoking a loader like NTLDR or BOOTMGR. Bootsect.exe only changes the code in the PBR or bootsector of the partition addrtessed by a volume letter. jaclaz Hi good day. well yesterday I made some test with the commands that suggest me, but in all commands I recieve the same message "access Deny" with the same result executing the command from my virtual drive than ramdrive, what could be wrong in my boot image?

Hi, I use Total Commander is a Portable aplication, just copy the content of the folder in system32 and that´s is all, Note: you need have XML suppot Installed on WINpe

I fear that if, I used the command bootsect.exe /NT60 ALL /Force, the comand replace successfull the mbr but when i try to start Windows still have the message. "bootmgr missing"

ho, that´s because bitlocker and safeboot I use to encript the machines and as you know this aplications replaces the mbr for another one, i suppose that´s the reason of my issue.

Thanks in other test if i call this command from X:\windows\system32 a popup appears with the legend Bootrec is not a valid win32 application another suggest?

Hi everyone, Now my deploy servers needs support 3 diferentes enviroments I need apply Windows XP, Vista and Seven from the same server, I resolved this issue with differents boot.wim for each operating system. but i have another problem, with this mixed enviroment the MBR starts to being a nightmare, I try call the command "bootrec.exe /fixmbr" from my Z: drive after the image applies but i recived the message "Acces Denied" instead of repair the mbr. in other test if i call this command from X:\windows\system32 a popup appears with the legend Bootrec is not a valid win32 application. to be clear, I copied this file in the hard way to my Z: drive, where my Z drive is my share folder in my server. So, How i can repair the mbr of each machine automatically after each image aplication? All this over Windows 2003 and Winpe 2.0 Again. Thanks in Advance.

Ok wait. the loading screen of begin isn´t related with the source folder. is relates to boot manager. make this execise if you replace de bootloader of Win 7 with one of Windows vista the windows logo loading screen changes from Win 7 to windows vista.
