I have installed BDD2007 into my windows 2003 r2 server; i have the RIS installed in the server already. I want to know can WDS able to deploy win xp. If WDS can deploy win xp, i can remove the RIS.

Additional question
Can the wds deploy linux? Because i used to be able to use ris to deploy linux os.


Thank
BBMak

WDS can deploy "flat" images only when RIS is enabled. WDS natively can deploy WIM images only, so if you make a WIM image of whatever it is you're trying to deploy (XP, Linux OS), then it should be able to attempt to deploy that (XP does work, btw, when in a WIM image).
