benzini Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Hi all,I'm currently testing Vista Enterprise deployment using BDD Lite Touch and wondered if any of you have come across solutions to the following problems.1. If using BDD you have to let BDD manage the partitioning of the HDD, if anything is entered in the unattend.xml the final stages of the deployment fail, however, BDD opts to use the entire HDD whereas I would prefer to have 2 partitions ... has anyone developed a script to re-size and re-name drives once deployment has finished or found a way to use the unattend.xml without deployment failing during the final stages?2. Has anyone found a work around for setting a UK keyboard at the very beginning of the deployment process, currently if you enter the UK keyboard code in the bootstrap it selects an Arabic Keyboard layout instead.3. As we are deploying in a business environment we have already embeded our company logo as 'user.bmp' into the Vista .wim this is then assigned via a group policy to all our users in order to ensure its the default user picture, however I'd really like to have the same logo showing in the 'user picture box' after pressing CTRL-ALT-DEL (before a user logs on) has anyone found a way to replace the transparent sqaure with a logo prior to a user logging on?Other than those issues, everything is looking good!Thanks in advanceBenzini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmarable Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 For the partitioning, you will have to mofify the ZTIDiskpart.txt file found in the scripts folder. If you take a look at the Task Sequence in your build properties you will see all the scripts that are run. ZTIDiskpart.wsf performs the partitioning of your hard disk. It basically calls diskpart and feeds it the ZTIDiskpard.txt answer file.So, you have a couple of options. The easiest is to modify the answer file to set up the partitioning that you're looking for. The other would be to modify the WSH file to call a different diskpart answer file (or use a different partitioning tool like GDISK). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
