On March 21, the first day of MMS 2011, I announced the immediate availability of the Deployment Research blog and Deployment Research Facebook page. Sites filled with video-tutorials on how to deploy operating systems. Information about this new site, as well a bunch of other deployment related community sites was by the way also printed (thank you FedEx) and put in the attendee-bag (Thank you Microsoft) for every MMS 2011 attendee, about 4000 people.

This also means that the deployvista.com blog will not be much active anymore. It will still exist, but the content will gradually be migrated over to the new site, cleaned-up and converted into the new format…

Happy deployment, and I hope to see you online in the forums…

 You can not use %WINDIR% in sysprep.inf with SCCM 2007 Minimize
Location: BlogsJohan Arwidmark

The default "Setup Windows and ConfigMgr" SCCM action will effectively replace all variables in sysprep.inf

And since that action is run under WinPE, the %WINDIR% variable will be replaced with X:\Windows.

So never, ever use that variable in sysprep.inf... (unless you really deploy Windows to X: which I highly doubt  :)  )

This is by design....
