Can't add drivers to boot images

I am just getting into OSD with SCCM 2012 R2 and have run into issues with the OS Image deployment.  I think it is because the boot image doesn't have the correct NIC drivers injected, but I can't seem to do it.  When I right-click the driver(s)
in SCCM, click Edit->Boot Images the section where I can select the boot images that I want to inject the drivers into is dark grey and there are no images listed.  Is there something I have to do to the drivers/packages/categories before I am able
to add the drivers?  Again, this is my first attempt at doing this so be kind. :)

I know this is a totally side topic, but that's a terrible practice security wise. That's my point whether or not it's the domain admin.
As for the drivers in the boot image, you need to be using boot images that line up with your version of ConfigMgr to manage them in the console.
2012 RTM -> WinPE 3.1
2012 SP1 -> WinPE 4.0
2012 R2 -> WinPE 5.0
2012 SP1 with CU3 or CU4 supports WinPE 31 and WinPE 5.0 boot images but you can't manage certain aspect of them in the console like drivers.
2012 R2 supports WinPE 3.1 boot images (but not WinPE 4.0) with the same caveats.
You can use the method outlined by Jordan to manually inject drivers if necessary. If there a reason you aren't using the standard boot images created during ConfigMgr installation though?
Also, you mentioned using the boot images you used in WDS. If these are based on the boot images directly from the Windows media, those won't work at all. As mentioned, you should be using the ones created at install time.

  • Can't inject drivers into boot images as they don't appear

    Hello,
    I have a problem trying to inject some drivers into the boot image using SCCM 2012.
    I right click on the specific driver, I choose Edit > Boot image and there no boot images show up! The list is empty.
    We do have 2 boot images (x32 and x64) and they are working just fine!
    Does anybody have a clue what is going wrong here?
    Thanks.

    What version of ConfigMgr (RTM, SP1, or R2) are you using and what version are the boot images?
    Each version of ConfigMgr can only directly manage (including driver injection) specific boot image versions.
    RTM -> WinPE 3.1
    SP1 -> WinPE 4.0
    R2 -> WinPE 5.0
    Thus, you are most likely trying to edit downlevel (or maybe uplevel) boot images.

  • Can't add drivers to Server 2012 R2 boot image in WDS

    Hi all.
    I want to use my "old" Windows Server 2012 (not R2), WDS to deploy new R2 servers but i can't add driver package to the R2 boot image, it comes out with error code: 0xc0000135 no matter what drivers i use.
    Without network drivers i can't boot the image on my physical servers, i've tried on a virtual machine where it works just fine.
    I can't use the old boot image to install R2, then it comes with error: "Windows could not apply unattend settings during pass [offlineServicing]." when it tries to install it on both virtual and physical servers.
    My initial thought is that the WDS server has to be on a R2 server but i can't find anything that proofs that.
    Can someone confirm that non R2 WDS is not supported to R2 or does anyone have an idea to a solution?
    Thank you in advance.

    Okay maybe not a solution but i installed a new WDS server on R2 and then there was no problem adding driver package to to boot image.
    So i was able to confirm my theory that it's not supported to deploy R2 from a non-R2 WDS server. If anyone can make it work please let me know but until then i think this is the only way.
    If I understand your description of the issue, the problem is that you are trying to update a WinPE 5.0 WIM with a version of the ADK that services WinPE 4.0 images.  Installing the new Windows Server 2012 R2 server caused SCCM to use the version of the
    ADK that services WinPE 5.0 images.  You should be able to deploy them fine from the other server, but you can only service them from the new one.  You will not be able to service the older WinPE 4.0 images from the new server either.

    Unfortunately, those slideshows aren't all that flexible. I
    don't think
    that Adobe supplies the source for the Flash slideshows. But
    if you use
    the spry slideshow, you should be able to edit the HTML in
    Dreamweaver to
    add links.
    Have a look at one of Project Seven's graphics presentation
    products -
    Lightshow Magic, Slide Show Magic or Image Gallery Magic.
    They're $95
    each, and extremely flexible in what you can do with them.

  • Can't add reflections to my images

    Like in pages, numbers, keynote I want to add reflections to the bottem of an image. I can't find the option. There is a checkmark for shadows, but no reflections. According to the Apple productpage it should be possible to add reflections. See the exemple I made with keynote. The checkmark "weerspiegeling" means "reflection" (it's Dutch).
    Any help is welcome.

  • Extract drivers from boot image

    I have a boot image and my team members added lot of drivers on top of boot images.... Now I want to get a report to get the list of drivers that are integrated
    and their source path as I must  have to keep them in a separate folder so that in my up coming migration project I can use them again to integrate in new boot images when migrated from sccm 2012 RTM to SP1 and R2
    Kindly through some light on this
    HunBoy Started learning from this page

    You should not use the drivers from your old boot images in your new boot images.
    Windows PE drivers are not the same for every verison of ConfigMgr.
    Win PE 5.0 = SCCM 2012 R2
    Win PE 4.0 = SCCM 2012 SP1
    Win PE 3.0 = SCCM 2012 RTM
    And the drivers you need are:
    Win PE 5.0 = Windows 8.1
    Win PE 4.0 = Windows 8
    Win PE 3.0 = Windows 7
    Windows PE 5.0 also includes many new drivers so drivers that you needed in older versions of PE might not be required any more...

  • Can I modify jumpstart server boot image to support another LAN card?

    I tried to install Solaris 9 from jumpstart server. However, Solaris 9 does not support my on-board LAN Card. As a result, I try to install Solaris 10 beta 55 from jumpstart server. It is a good news to me that Solaris 10 beta 55 does support "Intel 82801DB PRO/100 VE Ethernet". The installation is successfull. However, there is a problem when I install Windows XP on another DOS partition. I have no idea why the installation of MS Windows XP will crash the Solaris 10 beta 55 partition. Durning boot process in Solaris 10, There are a lot of Solaris partition errors. It is not a good idea to install Solaris 10 until the release comes out.
    I think that it should be possible to modify Solaris 9 jumpstart server so that I can use Solaris 10 beta cd to kick up LAN driver and call Solaris 9 jumpstart server to install the OS.

    You can use a "prestart command". It can be configured in the properties of each boot image, 'customization' tab.

  • Can't install drivers in Boot Camp

    I have a Macbook Pro with a retina display (late 2013).
    I am trying to install Windows 7 using the Boot Camp assistant.
    Everything worked successfully up until installing the windows drivers.
    I have them on a USB however the USB ports do not work in Windows as the driver have not been installed.
    I am using a USB 2.0. I also have a DVD drive connected and it fails to recognise that also.
    Any help would be appreciated!

    If you are using USB, you should allow Boot Camp Assistants to download the support software when you are formatting the USB. So, when you install windows, it installs the driver automatically.

  • R2 upgrade and custome boot images

    Hi Guys
    What happens to the custom boot images after the upgrade to R2 from SP1? There are some boot images customised to be able to connect to 802.1x secured wired network and I was wondering what will happen to them after upgrade?

    They're not gone after the upgrade so there's nothing to re-import thus yes you can still use them although boot images based on WinPE 4.0 are not technically supported in R2 (though they should work). You won't be able to add drivers to them or
    maintain them in the console either. You should put in the effort to customize WinPE 5.0 based boot images for the long run though.
    Also note that Win8 won't be supported anymore after October of this year (http://support.microsoft.com/lifecycle/search/default.aspx?alpha=Windows+8&Filter=FilterNO&wa=wsignin1.0) so
    you should plan to move to Win 8.1 Update ASAP for your deployments.

  • Default or custom boot image

    Hi to everyone. Currently I am in a process of learning SCCM 2012 R2, having experience in working with MDT & WDS. I want to perform capturing of reference virtual Windows 7 machine image and to deploy it later to bare-metal virtual machine. In order
    to do this I have to create task sequence media and while creating it I have to choose boot image. Since I have to "inject" vmxnet3 network drivers into boot image before using it for creation of task sequence media, what is recommended practice
    - doing so with default boot image (for example x64 flavour of it) or adding Windows 7 boot image into SCCM and injecting these drivers into it? In MDT I did not have any default boot images so I had to add them from Windows 7 installation media and inject
    these network drivers into them.

    No consequence. As Darrick says IT Admins often add their own custom images. However that is not essential. If you're just learning keep it simple.

  • Upgrade to SCCM R2 have to recreate boot image and TS

    Wanna ask, I have upgraded from my SCCM from SP1 CU3 to R2. But i noticed that in boot image, the WinPE tab is missing thus i cannot include the network driver. Anyway that i can make the tab reappear again? Net says have to recreate the boot image and TS...
    http://www.deploymentresearch.com/Research/tabid/62/EntryId/117/A-Geeks-Guide-for-upgrading-to-ConfigMgr-2012-R2-and-MDT-2013.aspx

    This often happens after R2 upgrade. If your boot image does not have 6.3.9600 version then you will not be able to manipulate it using the R2 console. You don't need MDT to create a new one though (this new version).
    You can use dism. See here. It's very easy. I had to do it yesterday.
