Just a simple report this time. when performing some IT duties on a Windows domain i needed a VAMT, i found out a new version (3.0) could be obtained by downloading Windows 8 AIK. so i did, went to download the setup and selected the management tools; in this proces i deselected the Windows Preinstallation components and installed the VAMT on my deploymentserver.
A day later i tried to update my WinPE bootfiles and invoked the command "Update Deployment Share" (forced) this failed. So i checked the properties of WinPE of the Deployment share: this crashed! throwing an error (sorry i do not have any detailed information about this because i did not collect it)
So it threw an error indicating 'unable to load .. from path D:\Windows 8 AIK\...\Windows Preinstallation... aha! after looking at this path i found it to be not there.
I proved to be the omition of my WinPE components in the Windows 8 AIK setup.
conclusion: Windows 8 AIK integrates with MDT not mentioning it during setup. be aware about this.
till next time.
