This article explains how to create a simple task sequence for deploying Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC to your Elo I-Series 3.0 with Intel device using System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM)
Creating a simple task sequence for deploying Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC to your Elo I-Series 3.0 with Intel device using System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) involves several steps. Below are step-by-step instructions to guide you through this process, including how to import drivers, add network drivers to the boot image, and adding applications during deployment.
1. Preparing Your Environment
- Before starting the task sequence, ensure your SCCM environment is set up and that you have the necessary permissions to create and modify task sequences and packages.
- Contact Elo Technical Support or Elo Solutions Architect team to get the SCCM drivers in CAB format. Simply download and unzip it like you would with any regular ZIP file. Make sure to store the drivers at a network location, as you will need to provide a UNC path for these files later in the process.
2. Importing the Operating System Image
- In the SCCM console, go to the Software Library workspace.
- Navigate to Operating Systems Operating System Images.
- Right-click Operating System Images and select Add Operating System Image.
- Specify the path to the Windows WIM file and follow the prompts to import it.
- Distribute the WIM file to your Distribution Points.
3. Importing Drivers
- Go to Software Library Operating Systems Drivers.
- Right-click Drivers and choose Import Driver.
- Browse to the location where your drivers are stored and select the drivers you want to import.
- Choose a category or create a new category for the drivers and decide whether to import network drivers (requires Intel® Ethernet Connection I219-LM) into the boot image.
- Distribute the driver package to your Distribution Points.
5. Creating a Task Sequence
- In the SCCM console, go to the Software Library workspace.
- Navigate to Operating Systems Task Sequences.
- Right-click Task Sequences and select Create Task Sequence.
- Choose Install an existing image package and follow the wizard to set up the task sequence.
- Specify the boot image and Windows image package.
- Set partition and format the target computer before installing the OS.
- Include product key and any necessary configuration settings.
6. Adding an Apply Driver Package Step to the Task Sequence
- Right-click the task sequence you created for deploying Windows and select Edit.
- In the task sequence editor, navigate to the section where Apply Device Drivers is listed and remove it.
