Some notes:

 

1.       If you launch Litetouch from within the old OS, as in a refresh
scenario using "cscript.exe \\server\path\Litetouch.vbs
<file:///\\server\path\Litetouch.vbs> " then MDT should *automatically*
remove the c:\minint folder. 

2.       If you are launching MDT from within WinPE, as in a "newcomputer"
scenario, these should be rare, check the bdd.log files under c:\minint to
see what state the machine was in when it was last run.

3.       Finally, if you are modifying the BIOS boot order to get the
machine to boot to a USB stick, you will get this error message after the
"Post-Install" phase, when MDT expects that you will boot into the Windows
OOBE setup, but you instead booted back into WinPE, Whoops!  I never
recommend modifications of the BIOS boot order for just this reason. All
good OEM makers support the ability to temporally select a boot device from
the boot menu without changing the boot order.

What version of MDT are you using?

 

As of 2012u1 (IIRC) it will prompt you asking if you want to ignore the
existing deployment.

Subject: [MDT-OSD] Dealing with old MININT folders

Hello,

 

Technicians in my group are running into the problem of not being able to
properly start a MDT deployment when an old c:\minint folder exists. Is
there a way to tell the deployment to ignore the old c:\minint folder and
start a fresh install ?

 

John
