How to image custom wim from MDT

Question

Hi,

I am new to MDT image deployment. I have a custom install.wim import into MDT for deployment. This custom install.wim is built by OEM vendor and it is a W2016 image. I would like to use MDT Light Touch x64 boot image to deploy this custom install.wim.

I imported Windows 10 boot.wim to make the Light Touch x64 boot image in MDT for this custom install.wim deployment. I created a Task Sequence for the custom install.wim without make any modification for deployment. When we PXE boot the client computer, it prompts for credential to connect to the domain. It never displays Run Task Sequence screen to select the Task Sequence and hang with a blank MDT screen. Is this the right approach? Did I miss anything?

Please advise,

Thanks in advance.

Brandon.
