miles2t17 Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 First off - I'm using MDT 2008, running on a Windows server 2008 standard with WDS.I've created a task sequences for installing both vista and server 2008. After booting into winPE I run through the wizard entering the appropriate info and start the installation. It then proceeds through the process, formating the drive etc. until it gets to "Installing Operating System" at which point everything stops. If i press Ctrl+C then everything continues just fine. How do I determine what is stopping the process so I can either eliminate it or provide the response it thinks it needs automatically?Thanks much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tripredacus Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 What happens if you do a manual run through using the cmd? Does a similar thing occur if you use diskpart/imagex? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miles2t17 Posted July 11, 2008 Author Share Posted July 11, 2008 I'm still pretty new to deployment, so i've never done it the manual way, I've just added the OS, made a task sequence, set up the deployment point, setup WDS and then pxe boot the machine. The only modification I've done is set a few variable in the customsettings.ini to prepopulate the wizard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fly Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Ever figure out what this was? I'm having a similar issue. Works great with all my Dell boxes, but not with a generic beige box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miles2t17 Posted December 17, 2008 Author Share Posted December 17, 2008 Its been a while, but as I recall I had to turn off Multicasting on the deployment point properties General tab in the Deployment Workbench. I really didn't need multicast in my small environment anyway, and I must of not had it configured properly. Hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
