By PXE boot by WDS, setup cannot be completed.

Question

[prepare-for-windows-deployment-with-mdt][1]
[create-a-windows-10-reference-image][2]
[deploy-a-windows-10-image-using-mdt][3]

With reference to the article mentioned above, I made a custom image for MDT. After that, I was going to deploy client PC(VM) by WDS, but setup cannot be completed. Because PXE boot starts at a beginning when client PC reboots after the OS installation.

I checked the operation of the custom image and confirm that I can install it to application when I start .iso by manual operation without using WDS.

Also, I can deploy client PC using Windows10 not a custom image.
So, I think that I am due to WDS.

Virtual environment: QEMU/KVM

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance :)

Hi.
Are you customizing the image correctly?
You can try using WDS to deploy the original image instead of the custom image. Use this to see if there is a problem with the custom image. If it can be deployed correctly, there is a problem with your custom image, and if it cannot be deployed correctly, the problem should be inside WDS.
You must check whether the WDS environment is deployed correctly or view the internal logs of WDS.

Hope the information is helpful.
