Anyone try PXE booting (using Windows Deployment Service) an IBM x3650 using Windows Server 2008 RTM's boot.wim? It freezes at the end of the progress bar (before the graphical logo screen). Not even sure how to start diagnosing this one as there are no logs to review so early in the boot cycle.

That's exactly what I'd like to do but I don't know what executables/packages are involved.

Today, we have four VistaPE boot images on our Windows Deployment Server: 1. WDS deployment 2. WDS capture 3. WinRE 4. A generic PE environment in which I can run our legacy Ghost-like utility (Rdeploy). Is there a way that I can create ONE boot image within WDS that can do all of these? I know that WinRE launches RecEnv.exe and that the sources folder is needed. What about the deployment and capture functions? It seems wasteful to have to maintain four boot images of essentially the same environment.
