Remote os deployment
Hi, I am trialing OSDeployer 4 and trying to setup pxe boot so a deployment can be made from the deployment server to a remote machine. I have configured the pxe client to auto start os bootup after 10 seconds, when I try to remote deploy an os to this machine, which is turned off, the machine starts correctly but it always boots into the os and does not perform a new deployment. Can you please shed some light on this for me. Thanks. Geoff.

Deploying an Image from a USB Drive
Hi, we are trying to use OS Deployer to image some new laptops that don't have any onboard ethernet. We want to try and avoid using a USB to ethernet dongle or trying to deploy over the WiFi connection. Our thought was to install PE components on an external USB drive along with the deployment image, then boot off the USB drive and run installation from there. Is this type of deployment possible?

Deploy to batch of computers problem
I bought 300 OS deployment licenses that I want to use over 3 year. I created a deployment task with name pattern and auto start when 1 computer is ready.

No mouse or keyboard in Hyper-V with OS Deployer
I am trying to capture an image of a VM in Hyper-V, but when the "Master Image Creation Wizard" starts the mouse and keyboard do not respond and I cannot start the wizard. I think it might be driver issue, but I don't know how to fix it. Can anyone assist?

XP & Win 7 Difference
Hi Babu , i have another question in the hopes of you pointing me in the right direction. Why it is there a different option when loading a Winxp system to capture an image than that of a win7 system, with win xp it gives you a section where u can see the network card info and address assign etc and with windows 7 it does not. And with windows xp when proceeding it also give u the option to save the image on a network share but with windows 7 it does not , it only gives u option to save the image

network shares to install - performance
Hello, We have a deployment server on ip 1 and one network share where we have the images with ip 2. We see that a client is installating from the storage with ip 2 BUT we also see that on the ip 1 there is all the traffic from ip 2 too. This means that anyway the traffic is going from computer to ip 1 and from ip 1 to ip 2 and back top IP 1 and to the computer installing. Maybe is not so clear what I’m explaining but we have clearly a problem of perfomances using the ip1 to deploy directly
