Hi,
My objective is to deploy XP over the network using Windows Server 2003. I
just wanted to clear up some confusion I've had will the different tools as
some other questions.
1) So did MDT 2008 replace all old versions of BDD?
2) Does light touch mean that it needs user input? And if so does the
Zero touch need SMS?
3) Are BDD/MDT just tools to help interface with WDS which is
ultimately how its handed down to the client?
4) Whats the latest version/release/download of WAIK? Does it include
a boot.wim that I can use for my deployment?
5) Can I capture a Windows XP box to a WIM file (thick image w/o
involving MDT) to be deployed using ImageX?
6) If Yes, will it lay down a sector based image or are WIM images
generally not sector based and so wont be HW specific?
7) Can I then use the Unattended.xml with WDS for the XP image?
8) Can I in general use WSIM (Windows System Image Manager) to build
answer files for XP or do I need to use Deply.cab to automate the minisetup?
9) Will all the WDS options (Client Naming Policy, which OU to place
the machine etc etc) work with the XP image deployment?
10) Can I use the Vista Boon.wim to push down an XP image?
Thanks, that's it for now.
