Problem in OS deployment SCCM 2007 R2-Client PC restarts
Problem in OS deployment SCCM 2007 R2-Client PC restarts
- Hi,
I followed the OS deployment article and created the package and sysprep folder and boot image as per the article,
The problem I am facing now is after the client gets the IP and loads the image file the client immidiatelty restarts...
How to troubleshoot the problem?
Pls help

- See smsts.log on the client.
- more often than not the reboot is down to lack of network connectivity between your client and the server,usually because you lack Vista Network drivers in your boot.wim file which is used to load WinPE which in turn installs the OS for you,
as Torsten says, look at your SMSTS.log file to find out if it is indeed a network problem,
do find out how to do that, see this post
if you don't understand what the errors in smsts.log file mean, post them here and we will help decipher them
cheers

my SCCM step by step Guides > http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=1064 - thanx Niall......
sure I do .......
My system crashed yesterday and i have to rebuild it now i will follow the steps u given and get back to you..... - I got my system up and I will be checking the logs....
- I am using virtual PC as SCCM R2 Server and client is that the culprit...
can I go for VMware? - please explain. i dont think i understand the question.
Mayur - Also try changing the type of virtual disk you are using.
SCSI or IDE....
Brett Moffett Let me be clear....
I am running MS Virtual PC 2007
The single PC is the Domain Controller and SCCM R2
And Client PC also MS Virtual PC with 512MB RAM and 20 GB HDD
i am now trying to deploy XP sp3 as per windows-noob article
When I boot from LAN the client PC loads the boot menu but immidiately restarts after that.
My question is can we use MS VPC for testing this kind things
Or Better to use VMWare ?- Better use VMWare. You will have issues matching HAL types on your the wim file and the VPC. There is a way around it, but I find it very convoluted and not worth it if you have other virtual solutions available at your disposal.
