      Hi,

      We have WIM Image which was created by MDT and need to verify the Image deployment using MDT with Existing Image.

      I tried the following steps...

      a. Import Operating system using exisitng WIM file.

      b. Create task sequence with Standard Client Task sequence.

      c.  Boot Bare Metal PC using LiteTouch.ISO

      d. Getting Error before the OS installation

      Operating System did not complete successfully

      ERROR – Unable to find setup, needed to Install Image \\<Path>.

      ZTI Error – Non Zero return code by LTI Apply rc=1

      Message from Task Sequences:

      Failed to run the action: Install Operating System

      Incorrect Functions

      The execution of the group (Install) has failed and to execution has been aborted. An action failed.

      You need to import the source files for Windows 7 under operating systems. Click on OS - Import OS - OS with Source Files and then point it to the Windows 7 DVD or location where source files are located.

      That should take care of this error.

      regards, Vik Singh

      When you imported your custom wim. You forgot to include setup files. Using only the wim file will not work.

      Select either option 2 or 3 and browse to your setup files (for example on the DVD)

      Hi. MDT always needs the source files for the os. That is because it uses setup.exe as its engine. It is not like SCCM where it applies WIM files as images. So import full set of source files for the os and you should be good to go.
