SOLVED 1511 Upgrade - Boot images not upgraded

[PH25]

I recently upgraded from 2012 R2 to version 1511 but in the logs i saw the errors below. My boot images seem to be the same version number as before the upgrade. Does anyone know what went wrong and what the error 'Setup does not upgrade customized boot image package' means?

I removed the old version of ADK and installed the new version as recommended before the 1511 upgrade, so was expecting new boot images to be created.

You can use this awesome guide by NicholajA - http://www.scconfigmgr.com/2014/02/...ot-updated-after-a-configmgr-2012-r2-upgrade/

or use the below steps to manually update the boot images.

1. Rename the boot.wim and the default boot wims in each architecture folder of theOSD\boot\ folder – both the i386 and x64 to.bak

2. Starting with the i386 folder first…Find the install folder of the ADK, which should be here if you installed with the defaults: “C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.0\Assessment and Deployment Kit\Windows Preinstallation Environment\x86\en-us\winpe.wim”. You will need to copy the winpe.wim to the OSD\boot\i386 folder. Rename it to boot.wim.

4. You will also need to copy it again, but this time rename it so it matches the name of the default boot wim for the site – so it should look like boot.<packageid>.wim

5. Update default boot image. Click “Execute Method” -> input object path as SMS_BootImagePackage.PackageID=”” -> UpdateDefaultImage

6. You will need to do this for the x64 folder as well. Do not do this for any custom boot images – this is just to update the default boot wims installed during setup of the site.

Hi,

Does that guide still apply to me? I've just upgraded to 1511, not R2. I was already on R2.

I thought this was the guide to use - https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com...boot-image-updates-for-configuration-manager/

I have followed that to a certain point but get an error when mounting the wim.

Could you post the dism.log file ?. In the screenshot the error is The system cannot find the path specified. Did you copy the wim file to the C drive first ?.

Hi Prajwal,

Thanks for your reply. I think i have solved this now and upgraded my boot images, although they didn't have 'version' listed when imported them back in.

I now have a different issue where my task sequence isn't working and content doesn't seem to be distributed to my DPs. I reinstalled the DPs and am getting errors.

Would you like to close this thread and have me open a seperate one with an appropriate subject name?

My task sequence fails with - "this task sequence cannot run because the program files for 00100002 cannot be located on a distribution point" (00100002 is config manager client.

I would suggest you to create new thread and post the TS issue.

Ok thank you. I suppose this one can be closed now.
