Preparing WDS to enable PXE Boot (optional but very useful)
- Minimize the Deployment Workbench application
- Open “Windows Deployment Services” from Start/Admin Tools
- Expand Servers / CONFIG-DEPLOY.config.local and right-click on Boot Images and select Add Boot Image. If the boot image already exists, right click on it and select Replace Boot Image to replace it with a newer version
- Browse to the Deployment Share location (e.g. E:\DeploymentShares\Customername) and open the Boot folder
- Select the LiteTouchPE_x86.wim file and click Open
- Click Next
- Enter an Image Name and Description
- Click Next until the wizard completes. Adding the image may take a couple of minutes.
- Once completed, the image will be listed as shown below
Thanks for these guides. They really helped me get start my MDT deployment on the right foot.
