I upgraded one of my customers site from SP1 to R2 on a Monday morning and have hit a number of hurdles. I have discovered that my customers OSD Task sequences were not functioning correctly. Everything seems to go fine, until it reaches the Setup Windows and ConfigMgr, and then once that step is complete, it reboots and I’m left on the ctrl+alt+del screen, with the computer joined to domain but no additional steps performed.
The TS does end with an error “Failed to resume task sequence (0x800700EA) error” , as if the new client gets installed and it just ends the TS!
**** Remember **** –> Support for Windows PE 3.1 boot images above of Windows ADK 8.1 is there as feature when upgraded to R2 !! **** Remember ****
I looked at my boot images and it looked good, but frankly the x64 boot image didn’t upgrade well and stayed to version 6.2.x instead of 6.3.x. I had a script to manually update it , but it didn’t like it so it failed again.
Created a new bootimage (x64) from scratch , updated my TaskSequence to use the new bootimage and *BAM* , it worked again
Hope it Helps ,
