We started windows unattended installation by using the URL
http://www.puppetblog.nl/installation/the-foreman-windows-deployment/
Our kick start file looks like
[root@sdin-swt-ct-04 pxelinux.cfg]# cat 01-90-b1-1c-60-de-73
#
# This file was deployed via 'Windows Kickstart default PXELinux' template
#
# Supported host/hostgroup parameters:
#
# blacklist = module1, module2
# Blacklisted kernel modules
#
DEFAULT linux
LABEL linux
KERNEL boot/windows-x86_64/wimboot
APPEND initrd=boot/windows-x86_64/bootmgr
ks=http://sdin-swt-ct-04.abccorp.global.abc.com/unattended/provision?token=a3da21ff-889f-41ab-bed2-fc4b25b1a618
network ks.sendmac
IPAPPEND 2
[root@sdin-swt-ct-04 pxelinux.cfg]#
After this we saw that the following files were generated with zero bytes
[root@sdin-swt-ct-04 windows-x86_64]# ls -lrt
total 264368
-rw-r--r--. 1 foreman-proxy foreman-proxy 0 Mar 12 02:11 wimboot

We downloaded wimboot from *http://ipxe.org/wimboot*
<http://ipxe.org/wimboot> and other files from our legacy pxe server which
is a WIndows Server 2012 R2 machine.
Now once wimboot starts it complains that argument "ks" which is present in
the kick start file is unrecognized argument.
*The error received is as below*
*initrd=boot/windows-x86_64/bootmgr
ks=http://sdin-swt-ct-04.abccorp.global.abc.com/unattended/provision?token=a3da21ff-889f-41ab-bed2-fc4b25b1a618
network ks.sendmac*
*unrecognized argument ks = a3da21ff-889f-41ab-bed2-fc4b25b1a618 *
*press any key to reboot*
