problems with OSD on sccm 2012 sp1

[mactatus]

Hi there,

We have at work a few dozen of laptops and some desktops that have the same GUID. After adding the bannedguids registry key I was able to pxe boot, it loads the boot.sdi file and winpe.wim file and it gets stuck on the winpe 4.0 welcome screen and those dots which were supposed to rotate in order to show that the winpe is loading, do not appear at all. The hardware is windows 8 compatible, because I have tried to install windows 8 from a dvd media and I have succeded to do so without any troubles. I have deployed one task sequence to the all systems collection and I have removed the registry key and I get the same "error". So, I made a winpe 4 bootable cd from ADK, using this guide http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/bc9b8da6-6210-4e47-a997-e5f2d1c3113d/bannedguid-in-sccm-2012-sp1-system-center-configuration-manager-2012-sp1 and surprise, winpe loads. So, I thought then that is a problem with the drivers which I have included in the boot images. Then, I have tried to build a boot image from scratch, which I managed using this guide http://myitforum.com/myitforumwp/2013/08/01/how-to-create-configmgr-2012-boot-images-from-scratch/ I added it in SCCM, I have distributed it, I have added it to a task sequence that I have deployed to all system collection, but I got the same result. Those spinning dots fail to appear. Even if I added the optional components available to WinPE, I still got the same result.

Any help and/or ideas will be greatly appreciated..

ok can you post your smspxe.log file from the server hosting the pxe enabled dp

Seems like SATA drivers to me ? are you sure you added the right drivers? maybe you could try to make a NEW WinPE 4 boot media? and try that one. It should be the same as the Win 8 bootable media.

First of all, sorry for replying so late, but yesterday was a crazy day and I didn't have the necessary time to test the OSD after applying CU1 to the server. So, I have attached the log.

Oneone: I made a new winpe 4 image after installing ADK on my computer and I wrote it on a CD and it works. After I import that boot image to SCCM, I distribute it and I integrate it in a task sequence, it doesn't work. It gets stalled at the Win Pe flag. If it is about the SATA drivers, why it boots with no problem at all when I boot from the WinPe cd?

Thank you all for your time

interestingly it says

 

![LOG[in SSL, but with no client cert]LOG]!><time="10:14:06.646-180" date="09-26-2013" component="SMSPXE" context="" type="1" thread="7604" file="libsmsmessaging.cpp:8755">

so have you dealt with certs ? are you running in https mode ? if you search for the mac address of the client do you see anything related to it's pxe boot attempt

[mactatus]

yes we are running in https mode. That warning appears at all systems when we are pxe-boot, so it doesn't affect only the hardware I'm having trouble with. About the MAC address, do you mean searching in other logs? because in the smspxe all that appears, I have attached it here.
