How to avoid system reserved partition

Recommended Posts

In the deployment task sequence, uncheck the box for “Create extra ‘Active’ partition” under Preinstall, New Computer only, Format and Partition Disk.

 

Unchecking this box essentially instructs MDT to follow the process outlined in the TechNet Magazine Article Understand (and Get Rid of) the Mysterious Small Partition.

 

Be aware that if you are deploying GPT partitions on UEFI, there is a second hidden partition which is required. Details on the partitions and their uses and requirements can be found in the TechNet article Understanding Disk Partitions.

 

For more information on MDT and deployment of Windows 8, be sure to check out the page Deliver and Deploy Windows 8 from the Springboard Series on TechNet.
