Installing a legacy boot image in SCCM to support XP migrations.


Overview

Following the release of ADK 8.1 support for Windows XP is no longer available. As a result administrators that wish to migrate from XP to Windows 7 using SCCM will have to use the ADK 8.0 to generate boot media. In addition to using a legacy PE image, administrators will also want to be sure that hotfix KB2910552 for SCCM 2012 R2 instances or R2 Cumulative update 1 is installed (see: http://davejaskie.wordpress.com/2014/03/30/system-center-configuration-manager-sccm-2012-r2-and-xp-migrations-require-hotfix-2910552-to-ensure-no-ntldr-missing-error/ ). This procedure will also work for importing other older wims with other customization's.

Procedure

1. Download the  ADK 8.0 http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30652
2. Install the ADK on a computer (should not be the site server) using the default values
3. At the feature selection select Deployment Tools and the Windows Pre-installation Environment (Windows PE)

6. After the command successful completes, a boot wim will be created at C:\SCCMLegacyx86\media\sources, Copy this file to the sccm sources in our example (\testsccmmp1.test.com\sms_tst\osd\boot\i386\legacy.wim)

7. In the SCCM console go to software library and click on boot images. In the ribbon click on add boot image.

9. In this example I have named the image legacy. You can confirm that it is using the older version, as the OS version will state 6.2.9200.16384 instead of 6.2.9600 (ADT 8.1).

10. The only thing left to do after this is to ensure that the task sequences are updated to reflect the older wim. To do this right click on the task sequence and click properties. Make sure it is set to use the legacy boot wim.

Conclusion

Adding an additional boot image in SCCM is a relatively simple process. For SCCM sites that are looking to perform Windows XP migrations to new operating systems it is critical that this step be completed to ensure that the process can be completely automated.
