The failure was being caused by the setting “Make this the boot disk” not being 
enabled.  How it got un-checked I don’t know.  Until I had it working right I 
wasn’t going to tweak any of the settings.  Once I enabled that setting 
everything worked fine.

I’ve gone and created a brand new MDT integrated sequence and this option is 
enabled by default on all of the UEFI partitioning actions.

Somewhere along the way I must have managed to clear that setting.

That’s twice now that I’ve managed to shoot myself in the foot just in the last 
week!  I so need the weekend.

I’ve typically seen this when the “Format and Partition Disk” step has been 
tweaked and is no longer setting the OSDisk variable that’s used in later steps.

Thanks,

Subject: [MDT-OSD] Issues Deploying UEFI using SCCM+MDT?

I’m at a loss on this and getting nowhere fast.

I’m running SCCM 2012 R2 CU3 with ADK 8.1 and MDT 2013.  I’m starting to work 
on supporting UEFI systems and cannot get the image to apply successfully.

I started with a basic “native” OSD task sequence and I can deploy to UEFI VMs 
and a demo laptop successfully.

I create an MDT integrated task sequence and it fails, all the time, every time 
when it attempts to apply the image (either Win7-64 or Win10-64).

Here are the last few line in SMSTS immediately prior to the failure.  The 
image application completes but then it fails when setting up the boot 
partition.  I’ve tried using the same Format and Partition step copied from the 
successful non-MDT integrated sequence but that didn’t help.  Niall Brady had a 
post on how to deploy Win 8.1 to UEFI so I tried his partition scheme but still 
no luck.

I don’t understand why it would work using the non-MDT integrated sequence but 
fail when using the MDT integrated sequence.  These are stock sequences in both 
cases and I haven’t customized them at all.

Am I missing something?  I have a feeling that I’m so far out in the weeds on 
this that the answer is right in front of me but I’m not seeing it.

Thanks
Mike
