Hi. I am trying to deploy Windows XP SP2 using the Windows Deployment
Services. My original server configuration was a Windows 2003 Server with
SP2, WAIK, and WDS with native mode installed. I created an unattend.xml
using the example in the Windows Deplyment Services Update Step-by-Step Gide
for Windows Server 2003 whitepaper -- I have been mainly working for this
documentation. I created a sysprep file, but I'm not postive that it was a
100% correct, but everytime after I made teh sysprep file and rebooted the
reference pc, it would reimage itself. If I placed a pc with no OS in the
test enviroment, I would get the PXE boot screen, but nothing would happen.
I know most of the WDS documentation deals with deplying Vista, but my
company is no where near rolling out that OS. I'm confused on what the WDS
server should have installed in order to deploy XP SP2 and also on what I
need to do to make XP SP2 deploy since it is now considered a legacy OS. I
have been working on this for about a week. Could someone please give me step
by step instructions on how to deploy XP SP2 via WDS? Thank you for your time
and attention.
