I am experiencing "Ultra slow download speed" (28Mbit) of the WIM file with WinPE 5 - ConfigMgr2012R2/MDT2013 during deployment of Windows 8.1 If I change the TS to use an WinPE4.0 Bootimage instead the the speed goes up to 700Mbit. (Is it supported to use WinPE4.0 for deploying Win8.1.. as a temp workaround right now?)
I have seen it on 2 different customers and in my internal lab using Server2012/CM12R2/MDT2013/WinPE 5 (VMware workstation in my lab and VMware ESX 4.1u1 at the customers site) Anyone have a suggestion in this issue ? It seems to be discussed here aswell with no solution yet ? http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/4c72ae27-198f-4751-b0d6-340a11b52bd4/insanely-slow-os-download-in-2012-r2-winpe?forum=configmanagerosd Regards Daniel Olsson
