'Why did my computer restart?' - WDS / SIM / Win 10 1803 Edu

Hi

 

Bit puzzled by this one, it's probably something I've missed.

 

Server 2012 R2 WDS

Deploying a Win 10 1803 Edu image

 

MS have added a ton of daft questions to the Windows Setup - so I'm hoping to skip it entirely as the local administrator settings, locale, input keyboards, protection settings will be the same for every machine we build.

 

unattend.xml here:

 

sanitised_unattend.txt

 

I've used the same process for Enterprise and it's working fine - PXE boot, admin username/password, select image, set partition options, build > reboot > skips OOBE and straight to local admin login.

 

This is the error I get:

 

 

Hit next and it reboots to the same screen.

 

Any advice? The image deploys fine without the unattend.xml but I have a fair few machines to build and would rather spend the time automating!

So this looks to have been an issue with the image as you may have guessed! Re-did the image and it seems to be deploying fine with the unattend.xml. Hope this helps someone!
