Unable to read task sequence configuration disk

Hi,

On a Lenovo L570, I have a strange issue. On Baremetal scenario, the computer is installing fine. On a New computer scenario (Windows is receving the deployment then rebooting and starting WINPE), I am getting that error "Unable to read task sequence configuration disk". I did a test with a USB dongle and got the same error message. So its not the driver.
We have a single boot disk (WINPE). So with BM or NC, its the same.
I cannot run F8 to reach the command prompt and looking to smsts.log as the error is appearing immediately at the WinPE screen.
Any idea?

Thanks,

    1.Could we check the smspxe.log on our client to see if there is any boot error on it?
    2.May we check that were not boot the USB device from a USB 3.0 port?
    For more details please refer to this article:

    Note:This is not an official article from Microsoft just for your reference.
    3.Could we provide a screenshot to see which step we are pending?

    Hope this could help you.
