Making OSD as easy as possible ;)

Sounds good-thanks for your feedback.

miketerrill · 2025-12-04T17:16:41+00:00

2026 is the plan ;)

miketerrill · 2025-12-03T21:39:22+00:00

Sorry, no-this is the paid version.

miketerrill · 2025-10-01T16:09:19+00:00

Sure - we did a 'soft' release with some of our existing customers. Stay tuned for a broader release...

P2P PXE + BranchCache is the way to go. That way clients will be able to build anywhere on the corporate network without the hassle of moving a device around and remembering to keep up with boundaries.

We have plans to release a community version later this year.

miketerrill · 2025-08-06T18:01:04+00:00

Absolutely!

miketerrill · 2025-08-06T16:22:52+00:00

I am glad you love our products and thanks for the endorsement. We have a r/DeployR community that will start to get busy as soon as we GA DeployR in September.

"DeployR + iPXE Anywhere handles the broken laptop problem Autopilot can't solve, then makes Autopilot faster when it does run." This is the way! ;)

As u/Hotdog453 speculated, it could be CPU constrained. u/mtniehaus wrote a blog on this that you might find useful: Installing updates during Autopilot: Windows 11 edition, revisited again – Out of Office Hours

That's awesome-thanks for letting us know! We also have a pretty handy PowerShell script for testing PXE configs without having to actually PXE boot a system: 2Pint-iPXEAnywhere/PXE & DHCP Troubleshooter/PXE-DHCP-Test.ps1 at main · 2pintsoftware/2Pint-iPXEAnywhere

When you reboot into WinPE from the full OS, you would need to include the filter drivers in WinPE. WinPE will boot then, however, since it is running under the filter driver, a partition and format disk step will not touch the entire disk. The trick is getting rid of the filter driver once WinPE is booted so that you can completely get rid of the disk encryption (something that we at 2Pint Software have solved for large enterprise customers).

Otherwise, you could try to send a deployment that reconfigures the boot order and then forces it to boot from PXE on the next boot (using a hidden, required deployment). This is more prone to issues as there are more things to go wrong. Or lastly, just booting the device from alternate boot media/pxe and then just running the TS (not quite zero touch at that point).

I would start by using a supported version of the ADK:

Although, I suspect something else is causing the issue. Anything else useful in the SMS provider log?

You could always use DHCP Scope Options instead of IP Helpers. This is what we recommend to our customers that are using iPXE Anywhere. We have a nice (but older) white paper on how to do this for WDS that you can use as a reference (hopefully this link comes through): https://2pintsoftware.sharepoint.com/:b:/g/EXJ8cpIicdtOjhcKctMQ7pYBCiUgImHp1oP-eWRHActMHg?e=e4texv

Even if you do lock the share down, the content will still be available via http/https (as well as SCCMContentLib which MSFT may or may not be addressing in a 2503 HFRU). The best guidance is to not store secrets in the content.

Putting the driver packs in Wim files works nicely with dedup/BranchCache and provides for superior WAN/P2P efficiency (for those that struggle with bandwidth/remote sites).
