Hello!
I currently have the trial version of Ghost Solution Suite, which I am testing to see if it's a good fit for our company to fulfill our imaging and deployment needs.
I have the suite all set up on a server, with a DC and DHCP server located elsewhere on the domain. I have made sure to add WinPE to the suite/server. I can run the agent installer on another machine, and that machine shows up in the console. I have set up the Create Image job, with the tasks Create Disk Image and Modify Configuration. Create Disk Image is using the Symantec Ghost imaging tool, with no additional parameters. The disk image is set to store in \images\ folder within the ghost solution suite. I have checked to prepare using sysprep, win7 operation system, and to use existing key. I have selected WinPE as the pre-boot environment.
The modify configuration is just to rejoin the computer to the domain and rename it.
I click and drag the computer to the job and tell it to run immediately. I can see the computer restarting a few moments later, ocassionally giving me the Windows is setting things up notifier on the screen. Either that or this is when things go wrong. I am given the new computer screen. It asks for a language, location, keyboard layout. I go to next, create an account (which sees the other accounts), choose what kind of network you're on, and how to control updates. If I go through this, sometimes the job back on the console will be stuck on "Restarting computer to prepare for imaging..." for an indefinite amount of time, or it will throw the error "Could not boot to Windows Automation." I've tried searching the forums and the internet, but to no avail. I can answer to the best of my abilities any questions that would help determine the issue.
Thank you for your help.
