how can I deploy Windows XP SP3 using SCCM 2007 SP1 - Part 2

Question

This guide assumes you have installed SCCM 2007 SP1 and then configured it as outlined here in Part 1 you must then do the additional configuration outlined in Part 2, and you must have completed the final configuration tasks in Part 3. Lastly you must be able to deploy an application using SCCM 2007

 

In addition to the above you must have completed Part 1 of this guide

 

 

Create the Task Sequence

 

right click on Task Sequences and choose New Task Sequence

choose the second option (Build and Capture a reference operating system image)

fill in your Task Sequence Information

click browse and select our X86 boot image

 

Note: if you don't see the x86 windows PE boot enviroment for SCCM 1.0 EN-US image listed then follow these steps first.

On the Install Windows screen click on Browse and select the XP SP3 operating system install package we created in Part 1.

Input your product key and make sure to enable the local Administrator account,

Configure Network

 

Here we need to enter our network configuration and click next, choose Join Workgroup (recommended best practise). Although joining the domain will work just fine you may have GPO's in place, or startup scripts (login scripts) etc which may taint your master image, keeping it off the domain will keep it clean.

 

on the Install ConfigMgr screen, browse to the Predefined ConfigMgr Client Package we created earlier

for the Updates and Software screens choose don't install any (ie: next, next)

 

for the System Preparation screen click on browse and choose the sysprep package we created earlier

fill in the image properties

On the Capture image screen, browse to a share on your network for copying the image to, and give the file a name

 

eg:

\\WIN-AE2V1IRN067\captures\xpsp3r.wim

 

fill in your user account for capturing the image with, I use SMSadmin

click next, next and close at the confirmation screen

I can't be advertised for a PXE boot because the Deployment Tools need to run in a full OS... When I am doing something like this I use a non-mandatory advertisement of the Task Sequence so I can start it when I am ready.

 

So you're saying booting to PXE is the wrong way to go about this? If that is the case how do I force it to start? I've let the OS just sit there and it never begins the capture process. Should I set the advertisement to expire?

When it doesn't have a mandatory schedule, it automaticly checks the checkbox "Allow users to run the program independently of assignments". Or in other words it will appear in your advertised programs.

 

 

I assigned it as mandatory it should run automatically correct?

if its mandatory then it will kick off within its schedule (set it as soon as possible if you want it quickly), or do as Peter suggests and run it on demand by making it non-mandatory and apologies for the misleading advertisement screenshot, i'm obviously tired !

Which log file would I check if this is not occuring automatically?
