Errors while creating an answer file in SIM
I'm using the System Image Manager to create an answer file for an unattended installation of Vista. These were the steps I took:
1. Install Vista via a Vista DVD on a formatted source machine.
2. Boot the source machine to boot from WinPE (Also includes ImageX tool).
3. Run ImageX to capture this Vista image with the command:
>ImageX.exe /compress fast /capture C:\myimage.wim "my Vista Install" /verify
4. Copied this image 'myimage.wim' to network share on Technician Computer where WAIK and Windows Deployment Services is setup.
5. Open Windows System Image Manager and Create a Distribution share.
6. Follow steps to create a Answer file, by providing this 'myimage.wim'.
7. It asks to create a catalog file, and when clicked OK,
I got this error:
Creating an answer file using SIM, gives an error while generating a catalog file as below:
6:48 AM : System.InvalidOperationException: Exception from HRESULT: 0x800F0808 > System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. > System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x800F0808): Exception from HRESULT: 0x800F0808
Can anyone tell me what this error is about, and how do I fix it?
