And the story continues around the famous OSD Deployment . It worked flawless after I strugled the last time @ the test lab at the customers , now we moved it to production and gues what happend ...right , it did not work

 After opening the smspxe.log it showed me this error :

I looked into the c:\windows\temp folder  but no PXEBootfiles folder to see...The Windows\Temp\pxebootfiles does not exist. Should it? Or is this a red herring? I looked it up under a command promt with Attrib command and yes a hidden folder where nobody had access to ..

The problem was goofy ACLs on the c:Windows\temp\pxebootfiles. When I attempted to revised security, I got an Access is Denied message. Once the above directory was deleted, the SMSBoot folder would populate when the bootimage was refreshed on the PXE point.

 I reported it as a bug @ the SCCM product team ...
